Biscan returns to Dinamo Zagreb

Former Liverpool midfielder Igor Biscan is set to join Croatia's reigning champions Dinamo Zagreb where he started his career 11 years ago, the club said Sunday.

"Igor Biscan was always an option for us, we have wanted him since June," Dinamo sporting director Zoran Mamic told journalists.

The 29-year-old former Croatia international is to sign a contract with the Zagreb club next week, and is expected to start playing in January.

Between 1996 and 2001, Biscan played 156 matches for Dynamo before signing for Liverpool. He stayed on Merseyside until 2005, the year the English giants won the European Champions League.

Biscan spent the 2005/06 season with Panathinaikos before returning to Zagreb in June last year. He has since been a free agent.

Biscan played 15 matches for Croatia, scoring one goal. The last time he was selected for the national team was in 2001.
