Davor Šuker
Davor Šuker (born January 1, 1968) is a former Croatian footballer who is widely regarded as one of the greatest strikers in the 1990s.

The crowning moment of his career was the 1998 World Cup in France, where he became the top goalscorer and won the Golden Boot by scoring 6 goals in 7 matches, leading the Croatian national team to a third-place finish in their first World Cup appearance. He is also the Croatian national team’s all-time goalscoring leader with 45 goals.

Šuker began playing football in his home town of Osijek with the club NK Osijek, where he played for the first team between 1984 and 1989. He then moved to Dinamo Zagreb, where he played in the following two seasons and scored 34 goals in 60 Yugoslav First League matches, impressing so much that he earned his first call-up to the Yugoslav national team as well as the attention of foreign clubs. In 1991, he moved to Spanish side Sevilla FC.

Towards the end of his playing career, Šuker opened his own football school, the Davor Šuker Soccer Academy, with training camps in the Croatian capital city of Zagreb as well as a couple of other cities.

In November 2003, to celebrate UEFA’s Jubilee, Šuker was selected as the Golden Player of Croatia by the Croatian Football Federation as their most outstanding player of the past 50 years. In March 2004, he was named by Pelé as one of the 125 greatest living footballers and was the only Croatian player to be added to the list.
