Toni Datković (Croatian pronunciation: [tôni dâtkoʋitɕ, tôː-];[1][2] born 6 November 1993) is a Croatian football defender who plays for Lokomotiva.[3]
Club career
Coming from the island of Pag, Datković went through the ranks of Novalja, before moving to Rijeka, where, after six months at the lower-tier side Lokomotiva, he joined the Rijeka academy. Raising through the ranks, he became the U19 team's captain.[4]
Datković never made his Prva HNL debut for HNK Rijeka, however, as he was sent on a loan to the Druga HNL side NK Pomorac Kostrena, where he remained for 2 years,[5] until his contract expired. In the summer of 2014, he joined the Slovenian PrvaLiga side NK Zavrč, where he played 52 league games and scored three goals. He joined Koper in January 2016.[6]
Datković moved abroad on 2 September 2019, joining Segunda División side Huesca on a one-year loan deal.[7]
Personal life
Datković is the son of the football coach Ivica Datković, his brother Marin is also a professional football player.[8]
