Dario Spikic

Dario Spikic is a Croatian right winger, born on 22 March 1999 (age 27), now with Rio Ave. His market value is around £1.5m, according to Transfermarkt.

His career is shaped chiefly by Dinamo Zagreb, where he made 76 league appearances across three seasons and scored 12 league goals. His strongest league campaign came in 2022-23, when he scored seven times in 34 appearances – a useful return from wide areas rather than anything needing a brass band.

Spikic has since moved on to Rio Ave, where he has made five Liga Portugal appearances in 2026-27. At this stage, his profile remains that of an established Croatian wide player whose most substantial work has come at Dinamo Zagreb.

Spikic is Croatian and plays as a right wing. He moved from Hajduk Split to Gorica in January 2020 on a free transfer, signed for Dinamo Zagreb in July 2021 for an undisclosed fee, spent time on loan at Aris FC in January 2025, and joined Rio Ave in August 2025. He scored seven goals in 2022–23 and four goals in 2023–24, with smaller goal totals across 2024–25 and 2025–26, a sequence that indicates his most productive spell came in 2022–23 before output declined.
