Ivan Perišic

Footballer Ivan Perisic, who deserved the glory of the hard-working legionnaire of European clubs, in one night turned into a national hero of Croatia. His goal equalised in the semi-final against England at the 2018 World Cup. And the ball, scored from his serve later, led the checkers to the final of the uniform, which the Croatian national team had never achieved before.

The attacking midfielder, who earned the title of top scorer of the Belgian league in 2011 and now plays for Inter, admitted to the press that at the age of 9, rooting for Croatia at the 1998 World Cup, and did not dream of surpassing the "star" generation that broke out then in the semifinals of the world championship.

The future star of the Croatian national team was born on May 2, 1989 in one of the most sporting cities in the country. Split was made famous by tennis players Mario Ancic and Goran Ivanisevic, handball player Ivano Balic and four-time world high jump champion Blanca Vlasic. A young football fan had available training in the youth section of the titled Hajduk, but fate almost left Ivan without his favorite sport.

His parents owned a small poultry farm, and Perisic's father insisted that his son help him after school. The head of the family did not want to hear that because of household chores Ivan is constantly late for training. The older the young man got, the more acute the conflicts were.

By the time he left school, Ivan had played for Croatia's youth team and had offers from selectors from several clubs, including Ajax and Hamburg. But the young footballer chose Sochaux and at the age of 17 escaped from the family showdown in France.

The Croat spent his first season playing for the youth team of the French club from Montbelaar. In 2007, he won the first trophy with the team - the Gambardella National Cup, for which teams consisting of players under the age of 19 compete. The senior team played in the final of the French Super Cup that year, so Perisic was looking forward to the transfer to the base.

However, the debut did not take place, despite the fact that the contract continued for two more years. At first, the player played for the sochaux B team, and in the last half of the year he was loaned to the Belgian Clubelar. The first game of the newcomer in the Belgian team was the match against Club Brugge in the Belgian Cup. Encouraged by the changes, the athlete scored a goal, which turned out to be the only goal scored in that meeting.

Ivan played 16 more games for Ruselar, scoring 4 goals, but the club did not want to acquire the midfielder. But the player was interested in those about whom he forgot - scouts "Brugge" whose team was defeated because of his debut goal. In the fall of 2009, Perisic finally moved from France to Belgium.

For the Croatian athlete "Sosho" received 250,000 euros. Hardly anyone expected that a couple of years later Club Brugge would help out 20 times more for his transfer to Borussia Dortmund. Two seasons in the Belgian league have revealed the maximum potential of the scorer.

Endurance, stability of the game, interest in football, lack of simulations and accuracy of attacks led Perisic to the fact that in 70 games for the "black and blue" legionnaire scored 31 goals. At the same time, 22 of them football fans could watch exclusively in the Belgian championship 2010-2011. Ivan was awarded the title of the best player and the best scorer of the tournament for his performance.

During the same period, the 22-year-old made his debut for the national team in the euro 2012 qualifiers. For the first time he came out to play for Croatia in a match against Georgia: Perisic was replaced by Ivan Rakitic. The team qualified, but could not qualify from the group at the championship.

In May 2011, Ivan first appeared on the field in a yellow bumblebee t-shirt. Borussia Dortmund beat Wolfsburg 3-1 in that game.

After one of the first matches for the Dortmund team Perisic went to the fans of the club and signed autographs for about two hours. He admitted to reporters that he was impressed with the atmosphere in the stadium. In 2012, with his participation, Borussia won both the Bundesliga and the German Cup.

Three years later Ivan repeated his success, but with Wolfsburg. The club bought him from Dortmund for €8 million in January 2013. Perisic suffered a knee injury in March and did not return to the field until late spring. Wolfsburg met with Borussia Dortmund, and the legionnaire sent two goals into the former team's goal. In 2015, Ivan's team won first the Cup and then the German Super Cup.

He participated in the qualification of the Croatian national team at the 2014 World Cup and helped to lead the team to the final part of the championship, but, as at the previous Euro, the "checkers" did not leave the group. During the 2016 European Championship Croatia finally overcame the group stage, but were eliminated after the first play-off match, losing to Portugal.

Since 2015, the Croatian athlete has been playing for Internazionale. The Legionnaire's Club of Milan cost 16 million euros. The player made his debut three days after signing a five-year contract, coming on as a substitute 5 minutes before the end of the match against AC Milan.

A month later, Perisic scored the first goal for Inter: in the match against Sampdoria, the scorer took advantage of Mario Icardi's serve.

Despite the fact that the Croatian player has not yet managed to achieve high-profile successes with Inter, his performances for the Milan team are stable. In each season he plays about 40 matches, and the number of goals scored varies within 9-11.

He plays as an attacking midfielder and winger.

The athlete is married, his wife's name is Josipa. The girl was acquainted with Ivan from school, they married in 2012. In the same year, the couple had a son Leonardo, and two years later - a daughter Manuela.

As a child, Ivan was teased by a "cockerel" for working part-time on his father's farm. Once this led to a major fight, and Perisic's parents were summoned to the director. Ivan was waiting with fear for his father's return, but he supported his son and, giving pocket money for work on the farm, advised to ignore the offensive nicknames.

Perisic is also known for arguing in the teams he plays for. Accidentally or not, Borussia sold him to Inter after too emotional a discussion with the coach. At the press conference, the player complained to the press that Jurgen Klopp does not include him in the starting line-up as often as he should.

The Dortmund coach sharply replied that "public whining is a sign of kindergarten" and advised the player who wanted to take to the pitch to "close his mouth and try to get the coach's attention, but not to cry at the journalists."

In the national team, Perisic has a reputation as a company open member of the team, always ready to morally support newcomers. Dalic, who initially made a bet on creating the necessary atmosphere in the team, repeatedly said that without Ivan the team would be quite different.

Ivan Perisic, like many players of the Croatian national team, leads Instagram, posting photos from matches and training sessions.

The Croatian national team became a real sensation at the 2018 World Cup in Russia. Having successfully exited the group, the Croats were able to knock out of the playoffs on penalties Danes and Russians, and also beat the English (2-1), for the first time in their history, being in the final of the uniform.

On July 15, 2018, Luzhniki hosted the final of the World Cup, in which France was stronger (4-2). One of the goals in the final game was scored by Perisic.

The contract with Inter is signed until 2020. In 2017, there was information about a possible transfer of the player to Manchester United, but the transfer did not take place.
