M. Barać, the defender of NK Varaždin, has become a key figure in the club's defensive line. His strength in duels and reading of the game contribute to the entire team's security. Although a defender's role is often thankless, Barać has consistently delivered excellent performances on the pitch. His collaboration with goalkeeper Teo Novak has resulted in many matches being kept clean, making him increasingly stand out as a leader in the defensive aspect of the game.
