Club career

Dinamo Zagreb

Early career

Petar, whose father Ivica (pronounced [ǐʋit͡sä]) played for Dinamo's cadets,[1] started off by playing in Dinamo's Hitrec-Kacian football academy.[2] With Dinamo's pioneers he won three titles from 2008-09 to 2010-11 and with the cadets he won one title in 2012-13.[3] Besides these titles he won the 2014 Mladen Ramljak Tournament with the cadets scoring a total of five goals,[4][5] won the silver medal with the cadets on the 2014 Zayed International Football Cup[6] and, with the juniors, won the 2014 Tournament of Turopolje.[7] He went with Luka Capan on football trials with the seniors and made his debut for the seniors, donning the number 15, in a 3-1 win against NK Istra 1961 on 6 February 2014 playing the first half.[8] However, Mamić and Capan were put on the B squad after the 2014 summer transfer window[9] to serve as backup for the seniors.[10]

Dinamo Zagreb 2

Mamić debuted for the B team, this time wearing the number 26, in a friendly 4-0 win over NK Hrvatski Dragovoljac on 20 July.[11] Mamić proceeded to play seven more friendlies[12][13][14][15][16] earning a red card in the sixth game[17] before suffering a concussion in the seventh game after a strong blow to the head only minutes after having scored his first goal for the B team.[18][19] Following his injury, he was replaced by Nicolas Taravel[20] but resumed training after only a week[21] making a comeback, and also debut in the league, five days later, on 9 September, in a 5-2 win over NK Moslavina.[22] Mamić, after having played one more league game,[23] was called in for the U-19 national team to participate in the 2015 UEFA European Under-19 Championship qualification and missed out on three league games before returning, on 14 October, in a friendly against NK Libertas.[24] Mamić returned to the league on 18 October, playing full-time and earning a yellow card in a tie with NK Vrbovec.[25] Mamić played five more games in the fall season,[26][27][28] earning two more yellow cards[29] and scoring his first ever league goal from a penalty, on 29 November, in a 3-1 win over NK Rijeka II.[30]

Mamić was speculated to be kept in the B team so as to maintain Dinamo B's domination in the league in hopes of moving up to Druga HNL, especially after Mario Musa was called back to Dinamo's seniors.[31] However, on 8 January 2015, Lokomotiva announced that Mamić had been loaned out to them for the rest of the season, along with Franko Andrijašević and Dino Perić.[32][33][34][35]

Lokomotiva

Mamić debuted for NK Lokomotiva on 18 January 2015, wearing the number 3, in a friendly 3-0 win over NK Vrapče.[36] Mamić went to Rovinj on trials with the team and played all of the matches of the 2015 Arena Kup.[37][38][39] Mamić debuted for the team in the league on 7 February in a 1-2 loss against GNK Dinamo Zagreb.[40] Three weeks later he was a last-minute substitute[41] and was substituted in on two more games[42][43] before being given another chance to play in the starting roster again in a 1-2 loss against Dinamo.[44] Mamić was once more a substitute[45] and finally got to play three full games in a row at the end of the season, even earning two yellow cards.[46][47][48] Mamić also played both quarter-final games against NK Rijeka in the 2014–15 Croatian Football Cup and earned a yellow card in the first game.[49][50]

Lokomotiva had qualified for the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League so Mamić went with the team on trials in Slovenia[51] and debuted in the Europa League on 9 July in the second leg of the First round in a 2-2 draw against Welsh side Airbus UK Broughton F.C.[52][53] He remained on the bench in the Second round against P.A.O.K. with Lokomotiva eventually being expelled with a 3-7 aggregate score.[54][55] Mamić was benched for the first three games of the 2015-16 season before being transferred back to Dinamo Zagreb 2.[56][57][58]

Return to Dinamo Zagreb 2

Having left NK Lokomotiva, Mamić returned in the second round of the 2015–16 Croatian Second Football League on 22 August in a 2-0 loss against NK Šibenik.[59] He played four more games[60][61][62][63] before scoring an own goal in a 0-2 loss against NK Rudeš.[64] He did, however, make up for it after two games[65][66] by scoring his first goal of the season, as well as the equalizer in a 2-1 turnover victory over NK Šibenik.[67] He played two further games[68][69] before being injured, only five minutes after scoring a goal, in a friendly match against NK Jedinstvo Sveti Križ Začretje[70] forcing him to miss out on the next league game. He returned on 13 November against HNK Gorica but remained on the bench.[71] Mamić finished the first half of the season playing full-time in both remaining games.[72][73] He played seven warm up games before the start of the second half of the season,[74][75][76][77] including warm ups in Umag.[78][79] Mamić continued the season in style scoring the first goal from a penalty in a 3-2 turnover victory against HNK Segesta and giving an assist to Karlo Majić for the equalizer.[80] He scored the last goal in a 3-0 victory over NK Rudeš in the very next game from an assist from Bojan Knežević[81] as well as the last goal in a 2-0 victory two games later against HNK Segesta after an assist by Tibor Halilović.[82]

International career

Mamić debuted for the Croatian under-14 team on 26 May 2010 playing a friendly against Bavaria. Later that year he joined the under-15 team and played six friendlies throughout the season. After a short hiatus he joined the national under-16 side eventually competing in eight friendlies.[83]

Croatia Under-17

Mamić debuted for the Croatian under-17 team on 1 August 2012 in a friendly against the Czech Republic scoring his first ever international goal only two days later in a friendly against Serbia.[84] Mamić was selected for the 2013 UEFA European Under-17 Championship qualification team. He played a good first game against Israel receiving a yellow card [85] only to score his first competitive goal in the second match against Kazakhstan.[86] After qualifying for the Elite round Mamić scored the first goal against Spain after a corner kick in the 45' minute eventually leading to Croatia's victory.[87] Petar played the rest of the qualifications qualifying for the European Championship and after two goalless games received a red card in the final game against Ukraine.[88] In October Mamić, having missed the first game of the World Cup, played a very good game against Panama [89] and played a somewhat weaker game against Uzbekistan eventually being replaced by Ivan Fiolić.[90]

Croatia Under-19

Besides playing three friendlies with the Croatian under-18 team[91][92][93] Mamić was called in for the Croatia national under-19 football team and debuted on 12 August 2013 in a friendly against Azerbaijan playing 79 minutes before being replaced by Luka Capan.[94] Mamić was also called in for the 2015 UEFA European Under-19 Championship qualification[95] playing full-time in all three games earning a yellow card in the third game against Turkey and qualifying for the Elite Round.[96][97][98] Mamić played the first and third game in the Elite Round with both ending in draws but ultimately failed to qualify for the 2015 UEFA European Under-19 Championship.[99][100][101][102]
