Jere Macan

This Croatian giant governs the midfield with clinical slide tackles and blistering pace, even if his blocking technique remains laughably clumsy. He is incredibly humble, yet insists on listening to Croatian lullabies before kick-off to find his zen, a ritual that leaves his teammates rolling their eyes in the dressing room. With an imposing frame and elite defensive instincts, he is a quiet force who lets his play do all the heavy lifting.
