Winning the title of best goalkeeper last season, Josip Jurcevic has proven his importance for Rijeka. His saves during crucial matches, like those against Hajduk, have brought stability to the team. On the pitch, Jurcevic is not just a custodian, but a leader who helps younger players with his experience.

In addition to his outstanding reflexes, he communicates well with the defensive players. At crucial moments, he shouts, organizes the game, and ensures the team remains focused. His contribution was evident in the recent match against Varaždin, where he recorded several key saves, enabling Rijeka to secure a victory.

"In the end, we're all working for the team's success, and I will give my all," said Jurcevic following one of the matches. This dedication and commitment will surely be key in his upcoming performances. Although he is young, his character and determination surpass his years.

Before becoming the first choice, Jurcevic went through various phases in his career, but he has successfully overcome all challenges. As Rijeka progresses in the League, Jurcevic will have many more opportunities to prove himself at the highest level.
