History of GNK Dinamo Zagreb (2000–present)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the new millennium, Dinamo Zagreb continued to land more trophies, winning at least one domestic competition per season, save for 2004–05, when they were knocked–out of the Croatian Cup and finished seventh in Prva HNL.
After the 1999–2000 title-winning campaign, Dražen Ladić, Goran Jurić, Robert Prosinečki, Tomislav Rukavina, Krunoslav Jurčić, Daniel Šarić and Igor Bišćan all either left the club or retired and were replaced by a new generation of players, including Luka Modrić, Eduardo, Vedran Ćorluka, Niko Kranjčar, Mario Mandžukić, Ivica Olić, Tomislav Butina, Dino Drpić, Boško Balaban, Tomislav Šokota, Ivan Turina, Dario Zahora, Mihael Mikić, Danijel Pranjić and Ivan Bošnjak, among others.
The club then changed its name back to Dinamo Zagreb on 14 February 2000 as the former name, Croatia Zagreb, adopted in 1993, had never really been accepted by their fans.[1]
