Marcelo Brozovic has joined Inter teammate Sime Vrsaljko in leaving the Croatia national team camp through injury, the World Cup runners-up have confirmed.

The midfielder missed Inter’s most recent game, the 2-1 win over SPAL at the weekend, through injury but still reported for duty nevertheless.

National team manager Zlatko Dalic had confirmed yesterday that Brozovic’s condition would be evaluated and it has since now been judged that it is better for him to skip the games and recover at Appiano Gentile instead.
