About Zeljko Kalac

Zeljko Kalac (born 16 December 1972) is a retired Australian football goalkeeper. Nicknamed "Spider" due to his tall, gangly figure, Standing at 2.02 m., Kalac is the tallest player to have represented the Australia national football team.

Kalac's preferred playing number (when not the conventional number 1) is 18 and has generally worn this number when playing for Australia. However, when he joined Italian club A.C. Milan in 2005, the number 18 was already claimed by Marek Jankulovski, who joined at the same time, and so he chose number 16. When he transferred to Kavala, number 18 was also taken, so he settled for number 60.
