Luton keeper Simon Sluga has been called up once more for the Croatia squad.

Manager Zlatko Dalić named the Town stopper along with fellow keepers Dominik Livakovic (Dinamo Zagreb) and Ivo Grbic (Atletico Madrid) for the three upcoming matches.

Croatia head to Turkey for a friendly in Istanbul on Wednesday, November 11, before heading to Sweden for a UEFA Nations League on Saturday, November 14 and then entertaining Portugal in Split on Tuesday, November 17.

Sluga, who has not featured in recent matches for his country, will be hoping to win a third cap, his last coming back in November 2019, despite manager Nathan Jones hoping that none of his players were selected after a hectic schedule for the Hatters.

Town trio Tom Lockyer, Joe Morrell and Rhys Norrington-Davies are waiting to see if they earned a call-up to the Welsh squad after the Football Association of Wales cancelled a press conference following allegations over manager Ryan Giggs.
