Danijel Nizic (born 3 March 1995) is an Australian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Football League Two side Morecambe.
Club career
Nizic was born in Sydney, New South Wales to Australian and Croatian parents.[3] He started his career with local side Sydney FC, before going on trial in 2012 with League One side Portsmouth.[3] He spent a year with the side on trial but was unable to complete a permanent move to the club due to work permit issues.[3] In July 2013, he signed for Championship side Burnley on a two-year contract after securing a work permit, also becoming fourth goalkeeper to sign for the club in the summer.[4]
In January 2014, he joined Conference North side Workington on an initial one-month loan along with Kyle Brownhill.[5]
In October 2015, he joined League One side Crewe Alexandra on loan,[6] making his debut for the club in an FA Cup first round tie against non-league Eastleigh. After first choice keeper Ben Garratt had been sent off, Nizic came on as a 64th minute substitute.[7]
In April 2016, it was announced that Nizic was to leave Burnley at the end of the season after his contract was not renewed.[8]
In July 2016 Nizic signed for League Two side Morecambe, after a spell on trial at the club.[9]
