A goalkeeper of towering height and equal athleticism, Kalac is nicknamed \u63ddpider?for the gangling arms and legs that help him stop the shots other goalkeepers cannot reach. His height frustrates opposing attackers, as crosses and corners are easily gobbled up. Came to the attention of Perugia with outstanding games in the UEFA Cup for Roda JC and signed to play in the Serie A. After a frustrating start is now a permanent fixture in the first team, although Perugia was relegated to the Serie B for the 2004\/05 season. After several frustrating attempts to leave, Perugia's financial troubles saw him finally secure a move to none other than Italian giant AC Milan.
