Nemanja Grbic evaluates the most talented players from ex-Yugoslavia whose names are on the wishlists of Europe's biggest clubs

Their national leagues may not be considered among the strongest in Europe – especially since Yugoslavia's break-up in the early 90s – but they have proved to be fertile grounds for growing young footballers. This summer we have seen Andrija Zivkovic going to Benfica, Marko Pjaca signing for Juventus and Marko Grujic joining Liverpool.
