Croatia coach Slaven Bilic is again being linked with West Ham United.
So far, chain-smoking boss Bilic - reportedly earning just £90,000 with Croatia before bonuses - has not been influenced by the mind-blowing cash available in the Premier League.
But his charismatic spectre is hovering ominously over West Ham boss Alan Curbishley, with Upton Park sources suggesting a poor start to the season will trigger a move for Bilic.
That has Corluka and his countrymen deeply worried.
Corluka, 22, said: "I think clubs in England will be looking at the job Slaven has done for Croatia. He has shown to everyone that Croatia play good football under him and we beat good teams.
"Everyone can see Slaven is very passionate about Croatia - he loves his country.
"But I am sure that one time, although, hopefully, not soon, he will want to manage in the Premier League because he has played in England and enjoyed his time there.
"There is big money on offer in the Premier League but we all hope that he will stay on for two more years in Croatia.
"And if Slaven has to go we hope that he will stay until after the World Cup finals in 2010 and then move to a club in the Premier."
