History
In 1999, the newspaper was acquired by Europapress Holding publishing company. Since 2001, it has regularly been published on Sunday. Later that year, the Sportske novosti Footballer of the Year award for the best footballer in the world – as voted by some of the world's top coaches and players – was established. On 30 December 2005, Zvonimir Boban was appointed CEO of Sportske novosti,[3] who later announced that the newspaper would in the future give more attention to football-related news. He resigned from his position in December 2008 due to his long-standing dissatisfaction with the editorial board.[4][dead link]
In 2013, the Croatian football syndicate established Football Oscar awards chosen by Croatian footballers and coaches.[5][dead link][6][dead link] The chosen categories are Croatian Footballer of the Year, HNL Footballer of the Year, HNL Young Footballer of the Year, HNL Goalkeeper of the Year, HNL Referee of the Year, HNL Coach of the Year, HNL Team of the Year, and Fairplay Team of the Year.[7]
