Croatia on the shoulders of ... Zrinka Ljutic: the 17-year-old already in team A for the 2021/22 season

After his debut in CdM and the two victories in the European Cup, the talent from Zagreb will already be one of the peaks together with obviously the "lighthouse" Zubcic and the slalomists of the men's team. The choices for next season are official.

In addition to Swiss-Ski, Croatia has also announced the staff for the 2021/22 season. Obviously with much lower numbers than the Swiss squadron, but there are 22 athletes in the federal cadres of which 14 are “associates”. Eight elements belonging to the reference teams. Team A will count, on a female level, on Leona Popovic and the highly anticipated Zrinka Ljutic; we will see the phenomenal 2004 class of Zagreb on a permanent basis in the next World Cup (followed by dad Amir as coach), she who played three races last season, coming directly from the first FIS (amazing everyone already in November on the snow of Solda) , but above all he has already won in the European Cup, both in slalom and giant. In the men's team here is Filip Zubcic, the point of reference not only in giant, with the aim of playing the World Cup of specialties as in the last two years, but now also in slalom where at his side there will be Istok Rodes, Matej Vidovic and Elias Kolega. In team B, on the other hand, we find Samuel Kolega and Tvrtko Ljutic (born in 2002), Zrinka's brother who has already emerged at good levels last year.
