Playing career

Karoglan has played for Žilina in the Slovakian Corgoň Liga. Previously, he played for Široki Brijeg and Zrinjski Mostar in Bosnian Premier League. He also played for Kamen Ingrad in the Croatian Prva HNL. On 20 August 2009, he signed a two-year deal with Croatian side Rijeka.[2]

Managerial career

edit

Karoglan managed Croatia Zmijavci in 2016, leading them to a 9th-placed finish out of 16.[3] In 2022, he was appointed caretaker manager of Hajduk Split.[4]

In the summer of 2023, he was appointed manager of Istra 1961, replacing Gonzalo García who led the club to fifth place in the 2022–23 season. After a disastrous start to the season, he was sacked after only three games in charge.[5]

On 23 October 2023, Karoglan was appointed to replace Ivan Leko as manager of Hajduk Split on a permanent basis.[6][7] After a series of poor results, resulting in the club losing any chances of winning the league title, Karoglan's contract with Hajduk was terminated on 8 April 2024.[8]
