Petar Orlandić


Petar Orlandić is a Montenegrin footballer who plays for Spartak Trnava as a forward.

Club career

Zeta

Orlandić first began playing football with FK Ribnica before he was recruited by first-tier club Zeta. He made his debut in the Montenegrin top flight with Zeta in 2009, where for a period of time became the top scorer for the club and the league in the 2013-2014, during which he scored 12 goals in 16 matches. On October 31, 2014, Orlandić scored a hat-trick against Berane.

Loan to Hapoel Tel Aviv

On February 5, 2014, Orlandić went on a 6-month loan to Hapoel Tel Aviv, with an option for Hapoel to buy out his contract after the 6 months expired. However, he saw minimal playing time with Hapoel, and his nine appearances for the team accumulated only about 90 minutes of playing time. Orlandić scored a total of two league goals for Hapoel.

Red Star Belgrade

On February 6, 2015, he signed a 3-year contract with Serbian club Red Star Belgrade. After Orlandić scored a goal against FK Rad on May 3, 2015, Serbian sports portal "Mozzart Sport" commented that Orlandić and Luka Jović were becoming a formidable striker tandem.

Spartak Trnava

Orlandić had joined Spartak Trnava in January 2017. He made his debut in Slovakia on 16 February 2020 in a grand derby match against reigning champions and table leaders Slovan Bratislava. The home fixture at Anton Malatinský Stadium had concluded in a goal-less tie and Orlandić completed the entire match.
In another home fixture against ViOn Zlaté Moravce, on 1 March 2020, he scored his first goal for Spartak by equalising a game in the 76th minute, scoring by a header after a cross by Yann Michael Yao. While ViOn took the lead in the first-half through Tomáš Ďubek, Trnava took the victory after a stoppage-time goal by Alex Sobczyk. Orlandić also conceded a yellow card in the second half.
In the following game against DAC Dunajská Streda, Orlandić suffered a seriously looking open head injury. While he was supposed to leave the pitch, he refused and collapsed after the final blow.
Fortuna Liga was then postponed due to coronavirus pandemic. As Spartak resumed training process, it was announced, on 5 May 2020, that Orlandić was removed from the first squad due to disciplinary issues, which effectively meant he became club-less, as the B-squad's season was annulled due to the pandemic.
