Croatia head coach, Zlatko Dalić has stated that Nigaria has the right to be optimistic ahead of their Group D clash on Saturday in the 2018 World Cup at the Kaliningrad Stadium.
He stated this on Thursday after his team and officials arrived at the Radisson Hotel where they will be staying in Kaliningrad.
The 51-year-old asked journalists about the mood in the Nigeria camp and they told him that the players were very relaxed and optimistic.
Dalić, however, said the Gernot Rohr’s side has every right to be optimistic because they have players in Chelsea, Arsenal and Leicester City.
”They have the right to be optimistic, they have players playing in Chelsea, Arsenal, Leicester City,” Dalic said, as reported by Sportske Novosti.
