  • Atletico Madrid signing Nikola Kalinic has spoken for the first time about his controversial early exit from World Cup 2018.

    Kalinic, 30, refused to come on during the opening group-stage win against Nigeria. He was then sent home, with the striker making complaints about a lingering back problem.

    Kalinic has since moved to Atletico from AC Milan and he used his opening press conference as a means to set the record straight.
