Croatia have reduced their squad for the 2018 World Cup to 24 players.

Through the official website of the Croatian football federation (HNS), Croatia's team finally released a temporary squad for the 2018 World Cup tomorrow.

after previously the coach, Zlatko Dalic, announced 32 names that become candidates, now he has crossed out eight of them and just leave 24 players who immediately follow the training camp.

no surprises in this announcement, as well as a row of top players like Danijel Subasic, Dejan Lovren, Luka Modric, Ivan Rakitic and Mario Mandzukic are included.



But the keriskanan believed to be on AC Milan bomber, Nikola Kalinic. scoring just six goals from 41 appearances in all competitions this season, the 30-year-old is potentially outclassed by Ante Rebic or Marko Pjaca on the front lines.

Understandably Dalic includes six attackers at once on the front lines, including Mandzukic, Ivan Perisic and Andrej Kramaric. that number is seen too much, for Croatia that usually only include two strikers in the starting XI.

At the World Cup held in Russia tomorrow, Croatia are drawn in Group D alongside Iceland, Nigeria, and runner-up tournament of the previous edition, Argentina.
