The leader of them all is none other than Luka Modric, but stalwarts such as Perisic, Pasalic, Kramaric, Kovacic and Livakovic are there as well.

Well-known names such as Gvardiol, Budmir and Sucic are included, and as a new feature of the 26-man list, there are seven more names who could shake up some of the regular starters.
