Croatia coach Mirko Jozic has a wealth of attacking talent at his fingertips and Vugrinec is no exception.
He played in seven of Croatia's eight qualifying matches and his team boss looks likely to keep faith with him due to his ability to play either in attack or in a forward midfield role.
Now 26, he first impressed at Turkish side Trabzonspor before switching his alliegance to Italy and Lecce.
There he has continued an impressive goalscoring run, which led to Premiership side Everton considering an offer for him.
