Marin Leovac, defender with four Croatia caps, rejoins the domestic champions Rijeka.
Following the two-and-a-half-year spell at Greek side PAOK, Marin Leovac returns to NK Rijeka, as the two sides agree on a loan deal until the end of the season with the Croatian champions having a purchase option in summer.
Leovac was the first to score at the new Rijeka's ground at Rujevica, in a 3:1 victory over Lokomotiva.
He joined Rijeka from Austria Vienna in 2014, and won Croatian Cup and Supercup titles.
His debut appearance for Croatia also came in 2014 against Argentina. Moreover, he wore the national team jersey against Gibraltar, Italy, and Northern Ireland.
