Last update: 4 hours agoCroatia Football: Zlatko Dalić has resigned as Croatia coach after nearly nine years, ending an “incredible era” following the 2-1 World Cup Round of 32 loss to Portugal; the Croatian Football Federation praised his two World Cup top-three finishes (2018 runners-up, 2022 third) and called it a “proud farewell,” with local media already pointing to Slaven Bilić as a likely successor. World Cup Fallout: The tournament heads into the quarterfinals with eight teams left, while Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo’s World Cup run ends after Spain knock him out 1-0, with widespread focus on his legacy and the final chapter of his international career. Tourism Watch: Croatia’s tourism stayed steady in early 2026, with 7.6 million arrivals and 29.5 million overnight stays in the first half, matching last year; the Adriatic led (27.1 million overnights) and continental Croatia (including Zagreb) rose 1%. Local Economy: Croatia’s residential property market saw a 42% drop in transactions in Q1 2026, even as prices continued climbing—signs of a cooling market driven by affordability. Zagreb & Croatia Mobility: Croatia’s taxi use reportedly fell sharply as fares rose, while new rules on taxi operations and property agency law from 7 July aim to tighten the market. EU Travel Rules: The US Visa Waiver Programme list includes Croatia, but travelers must secure digital ESTA clearance before boarding.
