Head coach Zlatko Dalic emphasizes the importance of the upcoming Nations League matches for Croatia, stating, "The Nations League will be a good platform for us to create a team that will start qualifying for the 2026 World Cup next year." This reflects the team's focus on rebuilding and preparing strategically after their recent Euro exit.
Dalic acknowledges the challenge of losing experienced players, saying, "Compared to this year's Euro, we lost two senators, Vida and Brozovic, but we are all happy that the captain is still with us - Luka is our great strength on and off the field." This underscores Modric's pivotal role in the squad.
