Ivo Grbić (born 18 January 1996) is a Croatian footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Hajduk Split in the Prva HNL.

Club career

Born in Split, Croatia, Grbić moved to the HNK Hajduk Split academy aged 9,[1] where he remained for the rest of his youth career. A youth international since the U14 level, he has drawn high praise from experts such as Vladimir Beara.[2] At the beginning of the 2014/2015 season he became the first goalkeeper of Hajduk Split's B team in the Treća HNL Jug. His first glimpse of first-team football was in October of the same year, when he acted as the reserve goalkeeper, but he only made his debut in the 18.4.2015 home loss against HNK Rijeka, conceding two goals in the last 10 minutes of the game.[3]

Personal life

Grbić has named Oliver Kahn as his idol. His father, Josip, was the acting president of HNK Hajduk Split during the 2010/2011 season.
