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 spell at Bayer Leverkusen in 2023-24 was an important part of his development rather than just a holding pattern away from Bayern. He made 20 league appearances and scored three goals, his most productive league campaign to date, and returned to Munich with more substance to his game.
By 2026-27, Stanisic remains a regular first-team presence at Bayern. He has made five appearances across all competitions, including three in the Bundesliga, one in the DFL-Supercup and one in the Champions League. He has also been active for Croatia, with appearances across the World Cup, World Cup qualifying and the Nations League.
Stanisic’s career is still being shaped, but the line is clear enough: Bayern grounding, a useful Leverkusen loan, and a place back in a demanding squad while staying involved internationally with Croatia.
