Luka Modric, Ivan Rakitic, Mandzukic. There are lots of names that come to mind when we think of Croatia… But Ivan Perisic is something special. The Croatian winger who plays for Tottenham as a left wing-back has now become the top scorer for Croatia in major tournaments.

He scored against England and France in Semi-final and Finals respectively.
There is another story behind Ivan Perisic. In 2017 he took part in the FIVB Beach Volleyball World Tour representing Croatia. The result wasn’t that impressive but participating in completely different sports which he is thriving on one of the biggest stages is just an amazing fact.

Perisic has played in many top clubs in Europe starting his career in Sochaux and then winning the top scorer award at Club Brugge. He also played for Bayern, BVB, Wolfsburg, and Inter and now playing for Tottenham and assisting on 7 occasions for them in the 2022 season.
