Ivan Perisic has been selected for Croatia's squad ahead of this summer's UEFA Nations League finals.
The biennial European tournament, which is now in its third season, will be contested this June between Croatia, Spain, Italy and the Netherlands.
Ivan's nation, who are making their first appearance in the competition's finals, qualified for this year's showpiece by winning Group A1. The Vatreni finished top of the group with 13 points, pipping Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg's Denmark, who collected 12 points, to the post. France finished in third while Austria (fourth) were relegated.
Croatia kick-off their campaign on 14 June (kick-off 7.45pm) with a semi-final tie against the hosts, the Netherlands, before Spain face Italy in the second of the semi-finals 24 hours later. The winners of both semi-finals will then contest the final on 18 June (7.45pm).
Our left wing-back heads into the competition with 125 international caps and 33 goals to his name.
