[edit] Career

Aged only 17, Perišić received a large amount of interest from a number of clubs, including RSC Anderlecht, PSV Eindhoven, Ajax Amsterdam, Trabzonspor^[2], Hertha BSC^[3] and Hamburger SV^[4], before he eventually signed for French club FC Sochaux. He moved to France from Hajduk Split. In Split he was called by some journalists "new Asanović" - a famous Croatian midfielder who played also in France^[5]. From 2007 till January 2009 he played for FC Sochaux. In 2009 he was on loan for half a season to KSV Roeselare, a team in the Belgian first league^[6]. On 26 August 2009 Club Brugge signed Perisic from FC Sochaux for 250,000 Euros and on a three-year deal^[7]. Belgian football critics predict a bright future for the 20 year old.

[edit] International Career

Perišić has appeared internationally for the Croatian national Under 17 and Under 18 teams^[8].
