Milan Badelj (born 25 February 1989) is a Croatian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Genoa and the Croatia national team. He is a member of the Croatian squad that finished runners-up in the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
On 16 September 2020, Badelj signed a three-year contract with Genoa.
On February 20, 2021, he scored his first goal for the club, as he equalized at the last minute of a match against Hellas Verona: in that occasion, he celebrated by recreating the number 13 with his fingers pointed to the sky, as a way to pay tribute to his late friend and former team-mate Davide Astori (in fact, the Italian defender had used to wear the number 13 shirt until his tragic death).<\/P>","80071F80C4550E7F":"186cm","229187823D238BA5":"174","1CD1A53514962B6A":"1","165A9E64AAEECF036C1B6B6A72794204F7BF560594F29F16":"1","37FE64B882E92ECB":"Milan Badelj","05B90AE4F21571952008D48326AE77E3":"47","165A9E64AAEECF0376C325C4F36A5C95":"800000.00","F849A024F3C8AF1B2C4A709B4C92BB0F":"2020-9-16","AA81248D0821D00F0BA9BCB533E2881F":"SS Lazio","9B962DAE9CDB1287":"79kg","CDD05FD46E6F78B9FEABD05EFFA7F762":"
