TEHRAN, Aug. 19 (Xinhua) -- Iranian soccer club Esteghlal have completed the signing of former Napoli left-back Hrvoje Milic on Monday, according to Tehran Times.

The 30-year-old Croatian international moved from Italian Serie B side Crotone on a two-year contract for an undisclosed fee.

He started his career at the youth side of NK Osijek and joined Italian Serie A club Fiorentina in 2016 after spells in Croatian and Russian leagues.

After a disappointing season at Fiorentina, he left for Olympiacos in Greece, returned to Italy in 2018 to join Napoli and moved to Crotone in early 2019.

Milic was a member of Croatian national soccer team in 2013 and has been capped six matches for the Chequered Ones.
