Career

societies

First stations as a professional

Ivica Olić played until 1996 at NK Posavac Davor , a football club based in his birthplace, and then moved to the youth department of NK Marsonia Slavonski Brod . A year later he moved up to the professional team, for which he played 42 second division games and scored 17 goals. In 1998 he signed a preliminary contract with Inter Milan , but was not allowed to play in competitive games until he was 18. Inter would have had to pay high compensation to the Croatian Football Association or to Olić's youth club . Only from January 1, 1999 would he have been given a free right to play. Since Inter didn't want to pay and Olić didn't want to wait, he accepted an offer from Bundesliga club Hertha BSC , which transferred 600,000 DM to Croatia for him. He moved to Germany for the first time in October 1998 . There he only came to two Bundesliga appearances and was mainly used with the amateurs, so that he returned to his former club in 2000. After two seasons he moved first to NK Zagreb , later to Dinamo Zagreb , where he won two championships and was promoted to national team.

CSKA Moscow

In 2003 he moved to Russia to the first division club CSKA Moscow , where he had his most successful period to date in three and a half years. With CSKA he won the 2005 UEFA Cup ; in the final he was on the starting line-up and was replaced in the 67th minute by Miloš Krasić .

Hamburger SV

Olić was signed by Hamburger SV on the penultimate day of the winter transfer period of the 2006/07 season . In 15 games he scored five goals and thus contributed to the fact that HSV still finished seventh in the table after the initial risk of relegation. After he had only scored once in the first nine games of the 2007/08 season , he succeeded on October 20, 2007 (10th matchday) against the reigning champions VfB Stuttgart as the first HSV player in the Bundesliga to hit a hat trick . He later donated the soccer shoes with which he scored the hat trick to the HSV Museum . At the end of the season he was Hamburg's most successful goalscorer with 14 goals.

Olić before a game for FC Bayern (2010)

FC Bayern Munich

For the 2009/10 season Olić moved to the German record champions FC Bayern Munich on a free transfer . In his first game for FC Bayern on August 8, 2009 (1st matchday), he scored the opening goal in the 25th minute in a 1-1 away game against TSG 1899 Hoffenheim . Olić got into Bayern's starting line-up after only a short time. On April 27, 2010 he scored all goals in the 3-0 victory in the semi-final second leg of the Champions League season against Olympique Lyon . He had already scored twice in the narrow quarter-finals against Manchester United and thus contributed to reaching the final, which was lost 2-0 to Inter Milan . With seven goals, he finished second on the CL top scorer list behind Lionel Messi . He also scored in the Bundesliga and the DFB Cup and won the double with the team at the end of the season .

After Olić was out several times at the beginning of the 2010/11 season with knee problems and a broken nose , which he suffered in the international match against Israel on October 9, 2010 , he was operated on in November for a severe lateral meniscus injury and cartilage damage in his knee. As a result, he was out for eight months and thus until the end of the season. He played only six Bundesliga games this season.

VfL Wolfsburg

For the 2012/13 season , Olić moved to league rivals VfL Wolfsburg . He received a four-year contract and was able to earn a regular place there. In his first year, he scored nine goals in 32 games. Also in the 2013/14 season he completed 32 point games in which he scored 14 goals. In the first half of the 2014/15 season he played 14 point games in which he scored five goals.

Return to Hamburger SV

On January 30, 2015 - exactly eight years to the day after his first performance on January 30, 2007 - Olić returned to Hamburger SV at his own request at the age of 35 , although he had been a regular at VfL Wolfsburg, second in the table, and HSV himself was in relegation battle. He signed a contract dated June 30, 2016 with an option for subsequent employment in the club's youth work. Just one day later he was in the starting line-up for HSV for the first time in five and a half years in the 2-0 home defeat against 1. FC Köln on the first match day of the second half of the season. Olić scored his first Bundesliga goal since his return on matchday 30 in a 3-2 home win against FC Augsburg . He scored one of the most important goals of his career on the last day of the game to take the lead in a 2-0 win against FC Schalke 04 , with which the Hamburgers managed to make the leap to the relegation place and the relegation against Karlsruher SC followed.

TSV 1860 Munich

For the 2016/17 season he was signed by TSV 1860 Munich , which provided him with a contract that ran until June 30, 2017. In October 2016, Olić was banned from the DFB for violating the betting ban for two games and fined EUR 20,000. At the end of the season, he finished with his team to 16th place , the relegation and in the standings compared with the third-placed SSV Jahn Regensburg also meant relegation. After the end of the season he left the club and then ended his career.

National team

On February 13, 2002, Olić made his debut in the senior national team, which scored a goalless draw in Rijeka in a test international against the selection of Bulgaria . He took part in the 2002 World Cup in Japan and South Korea, was used twice, scored a goal and was eliminated from the tournament with the team after the preliminary round . He then took part in the 2004 European Championship in Portugal , the 2006 World Championship in Germany and the 2008 European Championship in Austria and Switzerland . With the 3-2 win in the last qualifying game on November 21, 2007 in London against England , to which Olić contributed with the goal to 2-0, the national team qualified for the European Championship 2008.

His goal to 2-0 in the 2-1 victory in the group game against the selection of Germany on June 12, 2008 meant the group victory at the European Championship 2008. For the European Championship 2012 he was nominated again, but said a few days before the start of the tournament due to a Thigh injury. Two years later he took part in the 2014 World Cup and was used in the opening game against Brazil and in the two following group games against Cameroon , in which he scored a goal, and Mexico . The Croatians were eliminated after the group stage.

In qualifying for the Euro 2016 , Olić made eight appearances, including in the two games against Italy on November 16, 2014 - Olić played his 100th international match there - and on June 12, 2015.
