Tonći Kukoč-Petraello (born 25 September 1990 in Split) is a Croatian football defender, currently playing for Brescia Calcio in the Serie B.

Club career

Kukoč started his career playing in youth level for his hometown club Hajduk Split. At the age of 18 he passed the trial with the Russian club Saturn, but Hajduk refused to release him as they had a scholarship contract with him until June 2009.[1]

After signing a four-year contract with Hajduk, Kukoč was loaned to Istra 1961 for the first part of 2009–10 season.[2] The rest of the season he spent on loan in the second division side Mosor. He made his professional debut for Hajduk the following season, when he replaced Ante Vukušić in the final minutes of the home match against NK Zagreb. In the midseason Kukoč was again loaned, this time to the last placed Hrvatski Dragovoljac in Prva HNL.[3] He played five games for Dragovoljac, and scored his first goal in Prva HNL, after coming on as a substitute in a 3–2 defeat against Inter Zaprešić.[4]

Hajduk decided to keep him for the 2011-12 Prva HNL season and has worked as a rotational player, playing in a few different positions. He scored his first goal for the club in a 4-0 win against NK Zagreb.
