Josip Stanisic, born on 2 April 2000 (age 26), is a Croatia international right-back with Bayern Munich. His current market value is around £24m, according to Transfermarkt.
His development has been tied to Bayern, but the important stretch came away from Munich. A loan spell at Bayer Leverkusen in 2023-24 gave him regular league football and his most productive campaign: three goals in 20 league appearances. For a defender more often valued for balance than noise, it was a useful season at a serious level.
Stanisic returned to Bayern with more substance to his game. In 2026-27, he has made two Bundesliga appearances, along with one in the DFL-Supercup and one in the Champions League, taking him to four Bayern appearances across all competitions.
He has also remained involved with Croatia, with four World Cup appearances and five in European World Cup qualifying. His career so far has been a steady one: Bayern as the base, Leverkusen as the spell that sharpened him, and Croatia as the international thread running alongside it.
