Ex-Miss Croatia Ivana Knoll has revealed her celebrity crush is a sporting legend nobody would be able to guess.
The model became an internet sensation during last year's World Cup, wearing suggestive outfits which pushed the limits of Qatar's strict dress code rules.
She even claimed she'd go topless if Croatia won the World Cup. Zlatko Dalic's side ended up coming third in the tournament after losing to Argentina in the semi-finals.

He's currently fighting for his home county Ukraine in their war against Russia. Klitschko's older brother, Vitali, is mayor of capital city Kyiv.
Knoll also revealed in the chat that she received messages from players while at the World Cup. Some just wanted to chat, while others wanted to trash talk before playing Croatia.

The 30-year-old said: "I remember a few players messaging how are you, blah blah blah. Some of the players would say sorry for tomorrow before the game... I would not respond until they lost!"
Knoll's Instagram following at the start of the World Cup was 700,000 and it currently sits at 3.6 million. She recently attended Miami Heat's defeat to the Brooklyn Nets having taken residency in the city.
