Ivan Perišić (Croatian pronunciation: [ǐʋan pěriʃitɕ];[3][4] born 2 February 1989) is a Croatian professional footballer who plays for Inter Milan and the Croatia national team. He usually plays as a winger, but can also be deployed as an attacking midfielder or second striker.

A product of the Hajduk Split and Sochaux youth academies, Perišić made a name for himself while playing for Club Brugge, where he was the Belgian Pro League top goalscorer and was named Belgian Footballer of the Year for 2011. This earned him a transfer to Borussia Dortmund, with whom he won the 2011–12 Bundesliga, before signing with VfL Wolfsburg for €8 million in January 2013. He remained there for two and a half seasons, winning the 2015 DFB-Pokal Final, before moving to Inter for €16 million.

Perišić made his debut for the Croatia national team in 2011, and represented his nation at Euro 2012, the 2014 World Cup, Euro 2016 and the 2018 World Cup, reaching the final of the latter tournament. Instrumental to Croatia's second "golden generation", Perišić is the nation's player with most goals created at the major tournaments (11)[5], and the first Croatian player ever to score in a World Cup Final.[6]

Club career

Early career

Perišić played in the youth ranks of the club he grew up supporting, Hajduk Split.[7] He received interest from a number of clubs, including Anderlecht, PSV, Ajax and Hamburger SV,[8] before French club Sochaux paid €360,000 to sign him in the summer of 2006.[7] His physical and technical attributes led to comparisons to former Croatia international Aljoša Asanović by some journalists.[8] He was a member of the Sochaux youth team, which won the Coupe Gambardella in 2007.[9] During his time at Sochaux, he failed to make a first-team appearance, but did play for the B team.[7] In January 2009, Perišić was sent on loan to Belgian top flight club Roeselare for six months.[10] At the end of the 2008–09 season, there were reports Perišić sought to join Belgian side Anderlecht.[11]

Club Brugge

On 26 August 2009, Belgian club Club Brugge acquired Perišić from Sochaux for a €250,000 transfer fee and signed him to a three-year contract.[12] Prior his move, Perišić was linked with a move to German side Hertha BSC, having gone on trial.[13]

In the opening match of the season, Perišić scored his first goal in a 1–1 draw against Genk, then scored his second in two consecutive games and provided assists in a 4–1 win over Westerlo.[14][15] Overall, Perišić scored 9 goals in 33 league appearances, also making eight appearances in Brugge's UEFA Europa League campaign, scoring four goals. At the end of the season, Perišić signed a new three-year contract at Brugge, keeping him until 2015.[16]

Belgian football critics predicted a bright future for Perišić. In the 2010–11 season, he was the top scorer of the Belgian Jupiler Pro League after scoring 22 goals for Club Brugge, also being named Player of the Year in Belgium.[17] During the season, Perišić scored four goals in a match and provided an assist as Brugge thrashed Charleroi on 29 December 2010.[18]

Borussia Dortmund

On 23 May 2011, Perišić signed a five-year contract to play for German side Borussia Dortmund after Dortmund paid an estimated €5 million transfer fee to Brugge.[19] He made his debut for the club in their 3–1 home victory over Hamburger SV on 5 August, substituting on for Chris Löwe in the 75th minute.[20] During a UEFA Champions League match on 13 September 2011, he scored a late equaliser with a volley from 20 yards against Arsenal after entering as a substitute in the 69th minute.[21] On 14 October, he scored the first goal in a 2–0 win against Werder Bremen, a match in which he was later sent off for a second bookable offence.[22] On 21 April 2012, he scored the important 1–0 goal against Borussia Mönchengladbach and opened the door to the eighth national championship for Dortmund. The game ended 2–0 (the second was scored by Shinji Kagawa).[23]

Perišić began the 2012–13 Bundesliga season scoring a brace in a 3–2 loss against Hamburger SV on 22 September 2012.[24] However, Perišić soon found his first team opportunities limited, having played less in the first team and soon told Croatian channel Nova TV he had received no support from Dortmund manager Jürgen Klopp and accused him of favouring other players.[25] In response, Klopp criticised his actions as childish and Perišić faced a fine due to his comment.[26]

He made his competitive debut for Wolfsburg against VfB Stuttgart on 19 January 2013.[28] In March, he suffered a left knee injury that sidelined him throughout March and April.[29] He made his comeback in May in the match against Hamburger SV, coming on as a substitute and providing an assist. On 11 May 2013, he faced his former club Borussia Dortmund, scoring two goals.[30]

On 3 August 2013, Perišić scored his first cup goal for Wolfsburg in their 3–1 win against Karlsruher SC.[31] On 26 October 2013, Perišić opened his goal scoring form in the 2013–14 season in their 3–0 win against Werder Bremen, also creating an assist on a goal.[32] On matchday 30, he scored a brace in Wolfsburg's 4–1 home win against 1.

2015–16 season

Perišić made his competitive debut for the club three days later, starting and playing 85 minutes in a 1–0 win against cross-city rivals Milan in the Derby della Madonnina.[37] He opened his scoring account on 4 October in his fifth league appearance in the 1–1 away draw against Sampdoria, proffiting from Mauro Icardi's assist,[38] which was followed by another goal against Palermo two weeks later.[39]

On 2 March, in the returning leg of Coppa Italia's semi-final against Juventus at San Siro, Perišić scored the team's second goal of the match to help Inter overturn the 3–0 defeat and equal the aggregate 3–3, which led the match into the penalty shoot-outs. However, Inter lost 5–3 and were eliminated from the competition.[43][44] Perišić scored Inter's last goal of 2015–16 season in a 2–1 home win against Empoli on the final matchday.[45]

Perišić finished his first Inter season by playing 37 matches, including 34 in league, scoring nine goals, which seven of them were in league, as Inter finished fourth in Serie A, returning in European competitions after one year abstence and was eliminated in the semi-final in the Coppa Italia.

On 8 January 2017, Inter's first match of the calendar year, Perišić provided a Man of the Match performance by scoring both goals in a 2–1 away win at Udinese; it was his first Inter brace which took his tally up to six goals.[51] This was followed by another splendid individual performance against Chievo six days later as he scored his team's second goal after an invididual effort in an eventual 3–1 win.[52]

On 5 February, in the matchday 23 against Juventus at Juventus Stadium, Perišić received his first-ever career red card as Inter were defeated 1–0.[53] He was subsequently banned for two matches by Italian Football Federation (FIGC) for aggressive confrontation of the referee. After Inter appealed the suspension,[54] it was reduced to one match.[55] He returned from suspension on 19 February in the 1–0 win at Bologna,[56] and scored his second brace on 5 March in a 5–1 thrashing of Cagliari at Stadio Sant'Elia.[57]

Now, we can look forward and I'm only thinking about Inter. After signing, the pitch is the only thing left for me to think about."[64]
