Petar Kunić (Serbian Cyrillic: Петар Кунић; born 15 July 1993) is a Bosnian professional footballer who plays as a striker for Sloboda Tuzla.[1]

Club career

[edit]

Born in Drvar,[2] Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kunić started playing in the youth teams of Borac Banja Luka. He debuted for Borac senior squad in the 2009–10 Premier League of Bosnia and Herzegovina.[2] He played with Borac at Bosnian premiership until summer 2013 when he signed with Czech First League side FK Dukla Prague.[2] He stayed two years with Dukla however he failed to make a debut in the league and he spent most time on loan to other clubs, first season back with Borac, and the following one with Radnik Bijeljina, another Bosnian Serb club playing in the Bosnian Premier League,[3] as also Sloboda Mrkonjić Grad in the First League of the Republika Srpska.[4] It will be however a third Bosnian Serb side playing in Bosnian top-tier that will buy Kunić from Dukla in summer 2015, Rudar Prijedor.[2] Kunić was a regular throughout the entire 2015–16 Premier League of Bosnia and Herzegovina season, however, due to bad results, and also the restructuring of the league which was having the number of participating clubs reduced from 16 to 12, Rudar Prijedor ended up relegated to the First League of the Republika Srpska. That situation made Rudar to become vulnerable in order to keep their crucial players, and Serbian top-flight side FK Novi Pazar took the chance to bring Kunić to their ranks in summer 2016.[5] Kunić made his debut for Novi Pazar in the 2016–17 Serbian SuperLiga in the first round game against Javor Ivanjica, when he entered as a substitute in the 69th minute of the game, which ended a 1–1 draw.[6]

International career
