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, which says enough about where he now sits in the game without needing to make a fuss of it.
His development was sharpened away from Bayern during his spell with Bayer Leverkusen, where the 2023-24 league season brought three goals in 20 appearances. For a full-back, that was a useful return rather than a headline act, and it gave him proper senior rhythm before returning to the Bayern picture.
By 2026-27, Stanisic remains part of Bayern’s first-team group. He has made five Bundesliga appearances, one in the DFL-Supercup and three in the Champions League, taking him to nine Bayern appearances across all competitions so far this season. Croatia have also continued to use him, with appearances across World Cup fixtures, European World Cup qualifying and the Nations League.
Stanisic’s career has been built steadily: Bayern grounding, a productive Leverkusen spell, then continued involvement back in Munich and with Croatia. He is not a showy profile, but he is still a regular presence at a serious level.
