Steven Ugarkovic (born 19 August 1994) is a Croatian Australian footballer who currently plays as a defensive midfielder for A-League club Western Sydney Wanderers.[1]

After joining the Newcastle Jets in the middle of the 2015/16 season, Ugarkovic and Ben Kantarovski carved out a fantastic partnership in the middle of the park which has been the backbone to much of the Jets' strength in attack. The highlight of his time so far with the Newcastle Jets so far has been the goal which secured the Jets' their first win in Gosford in nearly 3000 days. Ugarkovic scored the lone goal in a 1–0 win over the Mariners in February 2016. Ugarkovic's first appearance for the Newcastle Jets was on 31 January 2016, in a 1–0 loss to Adelaide United.[2]

His father, John Ugarkovic, played in the NSL for Sydney United.[3]
