Club career

[edit]

Ivo Tomaš was born in Split, and joined Hajduk Split's youth academy in 2005. He first came under media attention when he was called up to the German U-16 national team in 2009, being eligible to play for Germany as his mother is German, not having been capped before for any Croatian selection.[2] He was added to the Hajduk first team by coach Krasimir Balakov in January 2012.[3][4] He made his debut for the first team in a 1–0 victory over Karlovac on 7 April 2012.[5] He left Hajduk in 2015.

In the summer of 2019, Tomaš rejoined NK Urania Baška Voda for the third time.[6]

Death

[edit]

On the morning of 31 December 2019, the media and his former club HNK Hajduk Split announced the death of Tomaš,[7] by suicide.[8]
