Career
A native of Gammertingen, he played for the local side before moving to the bigger SSV Reutlingen 05, where he remained until he moved, at the age of 18, to the youth side of TSG 1899 Hoffenheim. He stayed there for two seasons, playing for the U19 and the reserve sides, before moving on to Croatia.
He joined the Prva HNL side NK Zadar in the summer of 2012, and made his debut on 1 September 2012, in the 1-1 home draw with NK Istra 1961, coming in the 80th minute for Mario Bilen.[1] After scoring an own goal in the 4-1 home win against HNK Cibalia,[2] he scored his first Prva HNL goal on 22 February 2013 in the 2-1 away loss to NK Zagreb, in a match where he was subsequently sent off. An offensively-oriented player at first, his position was eventually to left-back, albeit an offensively-oriented one.[3]
In the summer of 2014, he transferred to NK Istra 1961.
On 15 July 2016 signed to Beitar Jerusalem.
