Roland Gerebenits (born 7 May 2000) is a Slovak professional footballer who currently plays for Považská Bystrica.[1]

Club career

[edit]

MŠK Žilina

[edit]

Gerebenits made his Fortuna Liga debut for Žilina against Senica on 12 August 2017. Žilina had destroyed Senica 7–1. Gerebenits replaced Miroslav Káčer, who scored one of 6 goals of Žilina to the point. Later on in the pitch Gerebenits witnessed the seventh goal by Michal Škvarka.[2]

Loan at Pohronie

[edit]

On 8 February 2020, Žilina had announced that Gerebenits and captain of the reserve squad, Peter Chríbik, will join Pohronie on half-season loan. In Gerebenits' case, it was noted as a step to help him penetrate Žilina's main squad. Consequently, unlike Chríbik, his contract did not include an option-to-buy clause. During the autumn half of the season, Pohronie already hosted former Žilina player Michal Klec.[3]

Gerebenits made his Fortuna Liga debut for Pohronie on 15 February 2020 against Nitra at pod Zoborom. The match concluded in a goal-less tie, despite both teams being in a direct threat of relegation. Gerebenits played from the start, as a centre forward along with Ismar Tandir. In the 51st minute he was failed to convert a promising header, following a cross from Peter Mazan, from deep within the penalty area. Gerebenits was replaced by Patrik Blahút after less than 70 minutes. Chríbik also made his debut in the match.[4]

Overall, he had concluded his spell with the Žiar nad Hronom-based club with 5 Fortuna Liga appearances, without scoring a goal, before concluding his loan on 30 June 2020 as an unnecessary player even though the season was not yet completed due to the delay caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Manager Mikuláš Radványi opted not to extend the loan by few weeks needed to complete the season.[5]

Loan at Železiarne Podbrezová

[edit]

At the start of the 2020–21 season, Gerebenits headed for another loan. This time at a 2. Liga club Železiarne Podbrezová. His season-long contract included an option to purchase as he had failed to penetrate the senior squad of Žilina.[6]
