JAKARTA - Thom Haye is free of transfer after his contract at Heerenveen (Eredivision) this summer.
Dinamo Zagreb is reportedly interested in signing the Indonesian national team player as an alternative to Josip Misic.
Final talks between Haye and Dinamo Zagreb are being held.
"Hay has been free of transfer since the end of last season so Dinamo (Zagreb) can bring him in without compensation," said Croatian media report HRSport.
Dinamo Zagreb is looking for a solution amid the unclear future of Josip Misic. The 30-year-old midfielder is still facing injury issues.
Misic's performance was difficult to return after being sidelined for about half a year due to a knee injury by the end of 2020.

Indeed, Dinamo Zagreb still has Arijan Amdemi. However, the 33-year-old player is no longer likely to be included in the long-term projection.
While another name for closing a hole in the defensive midfield sector is Branko Pavic. However, Pavic is still too young, 17 years old, and has no experience yet.
No wonder Dinamo Zagreb glanced at Thom Haye. Negotiations have also been very intense because the transfer market closed on Friday, August 30, 2024.
Thom Haye has made more than 200 appearances at Dutch Eredivisie clubs, such as AZ Alkmaar, Willem II, ADO Den Hague, NAC Breda, and Heerenveen.
Haye has appeared at all levels of the Dutch national team's age group, from U-15 to U-21. He helped the Netherlands U-17 win Euro U-17 twice in a row (2011 and 2012) with Memphis Depay and Nathan Ake.
The 29-year-old player then moved to become a citizen and has appeared in four matches for the Indonesian national team.
Thom Haye debuted with the Garuda Squad in the Second Round of the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers against Vietnam. On his debut, he immediately recorded an assist.
His first goal for the Indonesian national team was born against the Philippines in the same event.
Haye is a versatile midfielder. At the beginning of his senior career, the coaches placed him more offensive.
Then, he was placed in a wing position. Over time, he confirmed himself in the position of last midfielder.
