Euro 2022 Croatia Handball Player List: Coach Horvat Chooses 18 Final Names

The Croatian men’s senior handball team coach Hrvoje Horvat has announced the final list of players for the European Championships in Hungary and Slovakia, which will be played from January 13 to 30, 2022. This list includes players for the final preparations, including the Croatia Cup in Osijek.

There are 18 players on the list. In addition to three goalkeepers, two wingers, and three pivots, there are also eight outside players. After the final preparations in Osijek, which start on New Year’s Eve and last until January 11, the coach will decide which 16 players he will use for the first round of the competition. There are five more handball players on the reserve list who can be called later if needed. All of them continue to train in their clubs and have confirmed to the coach their readiness to jump in at any time in case of injury or illness during the final preparations or the European Championships.

Croatia will play two matches within the Croatia Cup in addition to training in Osijek before the Euros. Croatia will play against Bosnia and Herzegovina on January 6 at 16:45 and against Russia on January 8. Both countries are participating in the European Championships in Hungary and Slovakia.
