Kricic

Bojan began his career at Barcelona after progressing through the youth ranks at La Masia.
His early promise saw him make his first-team debut at the age of 17 years and 19 days,
breaking the record set by Lionel Messi. In his debut season, he scored 12 goals in 48
matches. In total, he spent four seasons at Camp Nou, scoring 41 goals in 162 games
before he was sold in July 2011 to Italian side Roma for a fee of €12 million. While in Rome,
he scored seven goals in 37 appearances in 2011–12 and then spent the 2012–13 on loan
at Milan, where he scored three goals in 27 games.

Roma did not exercise their option of an additional €28 million to sign Bojan definitively, and
so Barcelona re-signed him for €13 million. He spent the 2013–14 season on loan at Dutch
club Ajax with whom he helped win the Eredivisie title. In July 2014, Bojan joined the English
club Stoke City for €1.8 million. After subsequent loans to play on the European continent,
once for FC Mainz 05 in 2017, and in his home country Spain for Alavés in 2018, Krkić then
played in North America for a season for the Montreal Impact, and then finally in Japan for
Vissel Kobe for 2 seasons before being released by his club in January 2023.

As a Spanish youth international, he won European Championships with the Under-17 team
in 2007 and the Under-21 team in 2011, as well as earning his only cap for the senior team
in 2008. He has also represented the Catalan national team eight times since 2007.
