Mario Mandzukic has had a mixed season for Juventus, but there is no doubt that the tall striker will be vital for Croatia’s chances at Euro 2016. The midfield duo of Luka Modric, and Ivan Rakitic will create a bucket load of chances and Manzukic is just the type of striker required to provide the finishing touches.
An excellent header of the ball, Mandzukic can create problems for any defender aerially. The Juventus’striker positioning is also very good and he always seems to be in the right place at the right time. Croatia have a really good squad this time and they will need Mandzukic to be at his very best if they are to have an impact in the Euros.
One of the most experienced members of the squad with 65 international caps, Croatia will be hoping that the Juventus target man fires them to the quarter-finals and beyond.
