Croatia

Ranked 10th globally, Croatia, led by manager Zlatko Dalić, marches into the 2024 Euros with a blend of seasoned veterans and promising talent. The iconic Luka Modric, hailing from Real Madrid, not only commands the role of team captain but defies age with consistently stellar performances, a testament to his enduring skill and leadership. Despite Croatia's historic World Cup successes, finishing as runners-up in 2018 and claiming third place in 2022, their Euro journey has been limited, never advancing beyond the quarter-finals. Modric's enduring brilliance and the team's collective determination set the stage for Croatia to challenge their Euro history, striving under Dalić's guidance to break barriers and aim for a deeper run in the tournament.
