He was captain of the Croatian national team[1] from 2006 to 2009, after the departure of Slavko Goluža.[2] He won the gold medal at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens[3][4] as well as at the 2003 World Championship in Portugal.

At club level he played in the top tier in Croatia, Spain, Slovenia and France. He has won the EHF Champions League three times and the EHF Champions Trophy twice with BM Ciudad Real as well as the IHF Super Globe and EHF Cup Winner's Cup with CB Ademar León, and the EHF Cup with RK Metković Jambo.
