Duje Caleta-Car is a left-footed centre-back whose career has taken him from Red Bull Salzburg's pressing system through five seasons at Marseille, where he became a reliable starter in Ligue 1, to a difficult spell at relegation-threatened Southampton. Now at Real Sociedad, he brings composure and aerial presence to a side that demands structured defending. For Croatia, he competes for a starting berth in a well-stocked defensive unit, offering experience across multiple top European leagues. His ability to carry the ball out from the back suits the national team's possession-oriented build-up under Zlatko Dalic.
