Club career

Early career

He began his football career in Žilina, where he worked his way up through the youth ranks to the first team in 2010. In 2011, he was on loan at Rimavská Sobota and then on loan at Liptovský Mikuláš.[1] In the winter transfer window of the 2012/13 season, he transferred to the Czech team FC Slovan Liberec, which became his first foreign engagement.[2][3][4] Janec did not play a single match for the first team. He played on loan at other clubs. During the autumn part of the 2013/14 season, he went to MFK Ružomberok.[1] He made his debut for Ružomberok in a 2–1 win against FK Dukla Banská Bystrica, playing the whole match.[5]

In the summer of 2015, he finally left Liberec and signed a contract with TJ Iskra Borčice, a newcomer to the second Slovak league at the time.

Liptovský Mikuláš

In 2016, Janec joined 2. Liga club MFK Tatran Liptovský Mikuláš.[7] In 2021, his team got promoted to the Slovak First Football League, replacing FC Nitra due to financial reasons.[8] Janec made his First Division debut for Liptovsky Mikuláš in a 3–1 defeat to FK DAC 1904 Dunajska Streda.[9] His first contribution would come in a 5–1 win against FK Pohronie, assisting a goal scored by Robin Hranáč.[10]
