Marko Iharoš (born 23 June 1996) is a Croatian professional footballer who plays as a defender for First County Football League club Barilović.
Career
Dinamo Zagreb
Iharoš was developed in the Dinamo Zagreb Academy and also played in the UEFA Youth League.[1]
Rudar Velenje
On 2 November 2016, Iharoš signed a two-year contract with Slovenian PrvaLiga club Rudar Velenje, committing himself to the club until the end of the 2017–18 season.[1] On 7 May 2017, he scored in a 4–2 home victory against Olimpija Ljubljana, a goal that was later named the goal of the year.[2]
On 24 July, Iharoš, alongside Davor Bokalič, mutually terminated his contract with Rudar Velenje.[3]
Budafok
On 23 June 2020, Iharoš signed with newly promoted Nemzeti Bajnokság I club Budafok.[4]
He suffered a serious knee injury during a pre-season friendly against Radomlje in Slovenia three weeks later after his signing, tearing his anterior cruciate ligament and damaging the cartilage in his right knee. He later underwent surgery in Croatia, which sidelined him for most of the season, with his return expected no earlier than mid-spring.[5]
Following his rehabilitation, Iharos made his competitive debut for the club on 27 February 2021 in the NB I against Kisvárda. He appeared as a late substitute for Sebestyén Ihrig-Farkas in stoppage time, as Budafok secured a 2–0 home victory.[6]
Personal life
Through his paternal grandfather, he has Hungarian ancestry.[7]
