Club career

Early career

Gojak started his career at Željezničar's youth academy, although he never got the chance to play for them on senior level.[2] After he left Željezničar due to disagreements with board, he signed with Olimpic in 2014, with whom he made his professional debut against Velež on 1 March 2014 at the age of 17.[3] Two weeks later, he scored his first goal as a professional in a triumph over Rudar Prijedor.[4]

Dinamo Zagreb

In May 2014, Gojak was transferred to Dinamo Zagreb. The move was labelled as the transfer of the biggest Bosnian talent.[5] He debuted for the club in a cup game against Istra 1961 on 3 March 2015.[6] His first goal came on 14 May 2016, in a home win against Lokomotiva.[7]

On 15 September 2016, aged 19, Gojak made his UEFA Champions League debut against Lyon.[8] In March 2017, Gojak signed a new five-year contract with the club.[9] On 29 April 2017, Gojak scored four goals in a 6–0 home win over Cibalia.[10]

International career

Gojak came through all Bosnia and Herzegovina's youth selections.[11]

His first senior call-up came in March 2017, for games against Gibraltar and Albania.[12]
