By Chimezie Nebolisa

Croatia midfielder Nikola Vlasic will miss the rest of Euro 2024 due to a muscle injury, the Croatian football federation (HNS) announced.

Torino's Vlasic was injured during a training session with an MRI scan later revealing a torn muscle, according to a statement released by the federation, which did not offer more information about the nature of the injury.

The 26-year-old was an unused substitute in Croatia's tournament opening 3-0 loss to Spain on Saturday.

Before the competition, Vlasic also suffered an adductor injury but was eventually cleared to play with the squad in Germany.
