Darick Kobie Morris (born 15 July 1995) is a Croatian professional footballer who plays for NK Domžale as a centre-back.

Club career

Born in Syracuse, New York to an African-American father and a Croatian mother, Morris moved to Zagreb, Croatia at less than one year old.[1] Initially a right-winger, he subsequently moved to right back and then centre-back in the NK Zagreb academy, where he spent nearly all his youth career. In 2013, however, he moved, as a former Croatia U17 international to the GNK Dinamo Zagreb Academy.[2] In 2014, he became a regular in Dinamo's reserve team, a position he would hold for four subsequent seasons, mainly in Druga HNL. Morris made his first-team debut in 2015, in the 1-7 cup win against Oštrc Zlatar, scoring in the process.[3] The same year, on September 25, he made his Prva HNL debut as well, coming in for Josip Pivarić for the second half of a 4-1 home win against NK Osijek.[4] He would go on to make just one further top-tier appearance for the club, in a 1-0 win against Lokomotiva Zagreb in September 2016.[5]

In June 2018, Morris signed a 3-year contract with NK Domžale in Slovenia.[6]
