Once a legend in the Premier League, very few know that he is related to Modric and runs a cafe in Croatia

Mark Viduka marked an era of Premier League brilliance with Leeds United and many remember him from his appearances for the Australian national team.

Viduka started his career in Australia, where he was nicknamed "Big Dukes" for his physical abilities. He came to Croatia in 1995, where he played for the then Dinamo Zagreb for three years.

The former attacker was often criticized very harshly and unfairly, but he proved his quality in Great Britain, first in Scotland and then in England.


In December 1998, he moved to Celtic from Dinamo Zagreb for £3.5 million, where he stayed until 2000.

He then went to the famous Leeds United, where he played until 2004, then he was a member of Middlesbrough until 2007, while he ended his career at Newcastle United in 2009.

He played 53 games for the Australian national team and scored 11 goals. In 2006, with the "kangaroos", he eliminated Croatia in Group F of the World Cup in Germany.

What is Mark Viduka doing now?

Viduka spends her free time living in Zagreb, Croatia, where she owns a coffee shop and has a great love for the coffee she sells.

What many don't know is that Real Madrid's Croatian legend Luka Modric and Mark Viduka are cousins.

Luka's father, Stipe, and Mark's mother, Milka, are related, and it is interesting that Luka and Milka celebrate the same birthday - September 9. /Telegraph/
