His appointment follows the departure of Zlatko Dalic, who resigned after leading Croatia to a World Cup final in 2018 and a third-place finish in 2022. Bilic, who famously led Croatia to a Wembley win over England in November 2007, expressed his readiness for the challenge, stating he is a more mature and experienced coach with the same motivation to maintain Croatia's strong footballing presence. The national side recently exited the World Cup in the round of 32 after a controversial 2-1 loss to Portugal, with a last-gasp equaliser disallowed. Bilic, who last coached Saudi club Al Fateh, aims to build the team towards Euro 2028, which will be co-hosted by the UK and Republic of Ireland.
