Moreno Vušković (born 21 April 2003) is a Croatian footballer currently playing as a forward for Zmaj Makarska.

Club career

Vušković moved to Dinamo Zagreb in August 2020, having represented NK Solin and Inter Zaprešić in the 2. HNL and 1. HNL, respectively.[2] After two years, he moved to Slovenia to sign for Radomlje in February 2022.[3]

In February 2023, Vušković joined Kustošija from CSKA Sofia.[4] However, after one appearance, he briefly returned to Solin on trial, scoring in three friendly games in July 2023.[5][6][7] One of these goals came against Hrvace, and Vušković would go on to join the side the following month.[8]

After half a season with Hrvace, Vušković moved to Italy, signing with Serie D side Legnano in February 2024.[9] However after just four appearances and one goal, he returned to Croatia in August, joining Treća NL club Uskok.[10] In February 2025, he joined Zmaj Makarska,[11] and scored on his debut in the Split Cup - the only goal in a 1–0 win against Jadran Tučepi.[12]

International career

Vušković has represented Croatia at youth international level.[1]

Personal life

Hailing from a footballing family, Vušković's father, Ronald, is a semi-professional footballer in Croatia, while his grandfather, Mario, played for the youth teams of Hajduk Split during the tenure of Tomislav Ivić, and went on to forge a footballing career in the Netherlands.[13] His great-grandfather, Marko, also played for Hajduk Split during World War II, and went on to work as a club executive.[13] His brother, Vito, currently plays for Rudeš.[13]

In addition to this, his uncle, Danijel, formerly played for Hajduk Split, and now serves as a coach for the youth team, while cousins Mario and Luka also played for Hajduk Split, with Mario and Luka going on to Hamburger SV in Germany and Tottenham Hotspur in England.[13]
