The architect of Croatia's greatest ever football era — silver medal in 2018, bronze in 2022. Tactically intelligent, an outstanding man-manager and has consistently overachieved with a small footballing nation. His record of delivering medals at three consecutive World Cups is one of the finest in modern international management.[5]
One of the greatest midfielders in football history — still performing at Real Madrid at 40+ years old. His ability to control games with passing, movement and intelligence remains extraordinary. This is almost certainly his final World Cup.
Complete, tireless and technically outstanding midfielder — Premier League winner with Manchester City. Alongside Modrić, gives Croatia one of the best and most experienced midfield pairings in the entire tournament.
Manchester City's brilliant young left-back and centre-back — one of Europe's best defenders under 25. A physical and technical force in defence who represents the next generation of Croatian excellence beyond the Modrić era.
Experienced, versatile and consistently dangerous winger and wing-back — one of Croatia's most important players for a decade across multiple major tournaments. Brings the experience and quality of a player who has performed at the very highest level.
Clinical and technically gifted striker at Hoffenheim — a consistent scorer at international level who makes intelligent runs, links play brilliantly and finishes with conviction inside the box.
