Josip Juranović (born 16 August 1995) is a Croatian footballer who plays as a midfielder for Hajduk Split in the Prva HNL.

Club career

Born in Zagreb, Croatia, Juranović went through the ranks of the third-tier NK Dubrava, apart from a two month stint at the nearby NK Croatia Sesvete academy. Making his third-level senior debut in the 2012/2013 season, he first drew attention to himself by winning the Croatian leg of the Nike Chance competition for amateur players in early 2014, earning the right to vie for a spot in the Nike Academy team.[1] Not making the 5-person cut,[2] however, he returned to his club. His club performances remained strong, and, touted by some media as the best player of the autumn leg of the 2014/2015 Treća HNL Zapad,[3][4] he drew the attention of HNK Hajduk Split.

After signing a three and a half-year long contract with Hajduk in early 2015, he initially joined their third-tier B team, but was moved to the first team in April 2015 by the new manager Goran Vučević, and he made his Prva HNL debut in a 1-2 home loss against HNK Rijeka.[5]

Personal life

Juranović comes from the Dubrava quarter of Zagreb. Both his brothers, Dragan and Mihael, are also football players.[6]
