Legia Warsaw officials have addressed reports regarding the future of goalkeeper Otto Hindrich. Sports director Fredi Bobic stated that the club will not allow the Romanian international to leave. This declaration follows media reports suggesting the club was discussing a potential offer for the player.

Reports indicated that Legia Warsaw officials were prepared to discuss an offer valued at 10,000,000 euros for Hindrich. The club has not confirmed the existence of a formal bid but acknowledged the valuation in their internal discussions. Bobic’s statement serves as a clear rejection of any such departure.

Hindrich joined Legia Warsaw from CFR Cluj during the winter transfer window. The Polish club paid 600,000 euros to secure his services. His contract with Legia Warsaw is set to expire in May 2030, providing the club with long-term control over his registration.

Since arriving in Poland, Hindrich has established himself as the first-choice goalkeeper. He started in 12 league matches for Legia Warsaw. During these appearances, he conceded 13 goals. His consistent performances have drawn attention to his status within the squad.

The goalkeeper also represents Romania at the international level. He has earned four caps for the Romanian national team. This experience adds to his profile as a notable asset for Legia Warsaw.

Any future transfer of Hindrich would involve financial obligations to previous clubs. CFR Cluj holds a clause that entitles them to 25 percent of any future transfer fee received by Legia Warsaw. This agreement remains in effect following his move from the Romanian league.

Kisvarda also holds a stake in the player’s federative rights. The Hungarian club owns 30 percent of these rights, which they purchased for 300,000 euros in January 2026. This ownership structure means multiple parties would benefit from a permanent sale.

Kisvarda had previously been linked with a permanent deal for Hindrich. In summer 2023, the club refused to pay 700,000 euros to secure his full transfer. Instead, they opted to retain a percentage of his rights while he moved to other clubs.
