The 21-year-old Croatian international made quite an impression at Euro 2016 earlier this year, and it is no wonder that many clubs in Europe were after his signature. In fact, at one point, the player seemed to be headed to Liverpool but Juventus struck a deal worth €23 million for the young Croatian – a club record for Dinamo Zagreb.

The young Croat is a huge fan of Ronaldinho and has skills similar to his idol; direct play, dribbling, and speed.

Pjaca is a versatile player capable, of playing on both the wings and likes to cut into the centre. He can also play as a striker or even an attacking midfielder, given his athleticism. The Croatian is also a proven goal scorer and a good dribbler of the ball and has a physical presence on the field.

The youngster is also a proven goal scorer and scored 12 goals in the last season. He does have a few shortcomings – his aerial ability and lack of concentration, being two issues.

There is absolutely no doubt in the fact that a player of his talent can go a long way with a club like Juventus.
