Mario Musa (Croatian pronunciation: [ˈmaːriɔ ˈmuːsa]; born 6 July 1990 in Zagreb is a Croatian professional footballer playing for Dinamo Zagreb.[1]

Club career

Mario Musa started playing football at his local NK Zrinski from Farkaševec Samoborski. After 7 years at the club, he moved to Davor Šuker's academy at NK Posavina Zagreb and subsequently Samobor before joining the GNK Dinamo Zagreb academy in 2007.[2]

Following his youth career Musa became a part of a series of loans and transfers between Dinamo Zagreb and Lokomotiva Zagreb[3], playing for Lokomotiva in the Prva HNL, but going on loans from Dinamo or joining Lokomotiva on free transfers and returning, depending on loaned player quotas between the two clubs.[4] Mostly a first-team player, he also featured in the Croatia U21 national team in 2011.[5]

In January 2015, he returned for good to GNK Dinamo Zagreb, but suffered an injury during training.[6] He would go on to feature 17 times for the first team, scorin one goal, before being loaned on again, this time abroad, to Maccabi Haifa,[7]. He didn't remain in Israel, however, but moved to Sweden, again on loan, in early 2017, signing for Hammarby Fotboll.[8]. He would go on to feature only twice for the Swedish club before returning to Croatia. Two more loan spells at Lokomotiva followed, with GNK Dinamo Zagreb pulling him back from his planned 2018/19 loan after only one month, in mid-August 2018[9], in need of a left-back to serve as alternate for Marin Leovac[10].
