Handball: Ante Grbavac confirmed as FC Porto signing to replace Diogo Rêma | OneFootball

A giant arrives in Invicta for the handball team's goal. Ante Grbavac, coming from RK Zagreb, has signed until the end of the current season and will fill the spot left vacant by Diogo Rêma – who underwent surgery on his left knee in December – in the group of goalkeepers managed by Magnus Andersson.

Born in Ljubuski, about nine kilometers from the Croatian border, the 27-year-old and 1.97 m tall goalkeeper completed his training at RK Izvidac before being signed by Ciudad Encantada, from the Spanish League, at the age of 23. In his first season in Spain, he played 31 matches and finished in fifth place; in the following season, he participated in 35 games and contributed to the club achieving the best ranking in its history, a second place just behind FC Barcelona.

Returning to the Balkans to represent the multi-champion Croatian team RK Zagreb, the newest Dragon won the main national trophy in the two seasons he competed there and gained experience in the Champions League. After a first half of 2025/26 with a similar context, Ante Grbavac now arrives in Portugal to join, among the blue and white posts, Sebastian Abrahamsson and Bernardo Sousa.
