Nikola Kalinić (born 5 January 1988) is a Croatian professional footballer who plays as a striker for Hajduk Split and formerly for the Croatia national team.

Kalinić began his career with Hajduk Split in his native Croatia before moving to English club Blackburn Rovers for £6 million in 2009. After scoring rarely in two Premier League seasons, he left for Ukrainian side Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk, helping them reach the 2015 UEFA Europa League Final.
