Fran Tudor (born 27 September 1995) is a Croatian footballer who plays as a winger and right back for Hajduk Split in the Prva HNL.

Club career

Born in Zagreb, Croatia, Tudor started his career at the lower-tier Mladost Buzin, originally playing as a forward, aged 10 he was spotted by GNK Dinamo Zagreb scouts and moved there, but 2 years later moved to NK Zagreb where he spent most of his youth career, moving gradually to a right back role. In 2014 he moved to Greece, joining the U20 side of Panathinaikos F.C., where he was helped and mentored by Danijel Pranjić[1]

After a year in Greece, Tudor moved back to Croatia, signing a three and a half-year[2] contract with HNK Hajduk Split. Initially playing for the third-tier B team, where coach Mario Osibov moved him to a more offensive right wing role, he was moved to the first team by the newly appointed sports director/coach Goran Vučević for the match against HNK Rijeka on 18.4.2015, on which he debuted in the first team, scoring the leading goal from a header in the 44th minute in what would be a 1-2 loss for his team, before he was replaced in the 62nd minute by Josip Bašić.[3]

Personal life

Tudor is an alumnus of the XIII. High School in Zagreb. He is a distant cousin of Igor Tudor, both of them having roots in the village of Milna on the island of Hvar.[4]
