Tomislav Šorša (born 11 May 1989 in Osijek) is a Croatian football midfielder, currently playing for Osijek in the Prva HNL.

Club career

Šorša started his career playing at youth level for his hometown club Osijek, with whom he signed a professional four-year contract in July 2006.[1] He made his debut for the first team in the 2006–07 season and made a total of thirteen appearances before being loaned to Druga HNL side Karlovac for the 2008–09 season.[2][3] He helped them win the promotion to Prva HNL with two goals in 25 appearances. In September 2009, Šorša extended his contract for four more years.[4] The following season Šorša scored his first goal in Prva HNL in a 3–1 victory over Istra 1961.[5] He began his career as a striker, but manager Tomislav Steinbrückner moved him into a midfield role during the course of the season, where Šorša soon became irreplaceable.[6]
