The 19-year-old defender, who has shone on loan at Hamburg this season, will be on the plane to the USA, Canada and Mexico for his first major tournament at international level, joining ex-Spurs Luka Modric and Ivan Perisic in his country’s travelling party.
The dynamic centre-back was first called up to Croatia’s senior side in June last year and has four caps to date, including a goal in a 2-1 win over Colombia in March.
Prior to that, he was a regular in the youth international age groups, all the way up to Under-21 level.
Croatia will face England, Panama and Ghana in Group L at the tournament finals.
Congratulations, Luka!
