Club career[]

Born in Izola, Begić started playing football at the local team and later joined Koper, before moving to Gorica in 2018.[3][4] Here, he progressed through the youth ranks and was promoted to the first team in 2020,[3] subsequently making his professional debut on 8 March, as he came in as a substitute for in the second half of the second division match against Dob, which his team lost 2–0. He then made his first start on 30 August 2020, as he also scored his first senior goal in a 5–0 win against Triglav Kranj, which made Gorica win the promotional play-off and gain promotion back to the national top tier.[3][5]

After one more season with Gorica in the PrvaLiga, where he scored three goals and made two assists in 28 matches, Begić joined Celje in the summer of 2021 on a permanent deal.[4][6] At Celje, Begić established himself as a regular starter, amassing a total amount of 37 appearances between the league and the national cup.[7]

On 5 July 2022, Begić officially joined Vicenza on a permanent deal, signing a four-year deal with the club who had just got relegated to Serie C.[6]

International career[]

Begić has represented Slovenia at all youth international levels.[8]

Although he received his first call-up to the under-21 national team in May 2021,[9] he didn't made his official competitive debut with the squad until 6 September of the same year, during the match against Andorra. He went on to take part in several matches of the European Under-21 Championship qualifiers, which ultimately saw Slovenia fail to progress to the final stage.[6][10]
