Croatia Name Squad - Ipswich Town News

Croatia have named their squad for next Wednesday's full international against England at Portman Road. Manager Otto Baric has named 19 players with another two expected to be added prior to the game.

Many of the more familiar Croats from previous World Cup and European Championships have now retired from international football and the only English-based player is Portsmouth's Boris Zivkovic who is expected to captain his side.

England announce both the senior and U21 squads on Saturday at 7pm. Darren Bent and Matt Richards may be amongst those called up by David Platt for the youngsters' game at West Ham on Tuesday, also against Croatia.

Croatia squad: Tomislav Butina, Stipe Pletikosa, Robert Kovac, Igor Tudor, Dario Simic, Boris Zivkovic, Danijel Hrman, Josep Simunic, Marko Babic, Niko Kovac, Darijo Srna, Milan Rapaic, Dovani Roso, Jerko Leko, Stjepan Tomas, Ivica Mornar, Marijo Maric, Ivica Olic and Dado Prso.
