  • Rafel Gomes Cirino, also known as Belinho, rejected Brazil‘s call up and instead decided to represent Croatia. Therefore, he could become the third Brazilian-born player to represent Croatia.

    Belinho moved together with his father and brother to Croatia two years ago and beginning of 2023 he joined the ranks of Dinamo Zagreb. Currently he is in the process of acquiring the Croatian citizenship and expected to become an official Croatian citizen at the end of this year.

    According to his agent Andy Bara, Belinho could potentially become the most expensive transfer in Dinamo‘s history. However, it is still early to tell if he will eventually fulfill his potential as he is only 14 years old.







  • I think that we should still be able to qualify for every major competition within the next 10-15 years given the talents that we have in certain positions.

    I believe that the future core of our national team will consist of Gvardiol (CB), Baturina and Sučić (both CM/AM), Šimić (CF) and potentially Vidović (LW). They are already playing an important part in their clubs and have IMO the ability to achieve a world class career.

    However, we do lack the same level of talents in FB, DM and RW. There are some decently talented players in these positions (e.g. Sigur) but it’s difficult to tell what their limit is as of now.
