"This was no easy decision, since everybody who was called-up deserved to go. Some of the older players have told me that there has never been so much quality at our training sessions. As head coach, I have to take many things into account and I have explained my decision to the players", said Čačić.
Of 27 players on the provisional squad list, young goalie Dominik Livaković, defender Duje Ćaleta-Car and midfielders Domagoj Antolić and Alen Halilović had to leave Croatia camp in Rovinj.
