My Take
Igor Stimac belongs to a romantic chapter of football history. Standing 188 cm and anchoring the defense, he was part of that astonishing 1996-1998 Croatia side that crashed the elite and finished third at a World Cup in only its second tournament. What I admire most is the through-line of his life: three returns to Hajduk Split betray real loyalty, and his move into management feels like the natural arc of a leader who always read the game. Players who lead from the back often make the most credible coaches, and Stimac carries the weight of someone who has truly been there.
