Markovič debuted for Slavia Prague on 24 August 2019 in a 4-0 Czech First League victory against Bohemians 1905, becoming the second youngest goalkeeper to debut for Slavia, and the youngest to keep a clean sheet.^[2]

Spending time on loan in FK Pardubice, Markovič played an important role in keeping clean sheets in the 2021–22 Czech First League relegation group.^[3]

On 3 July 2023, Markovič signed a four-year contract with Baník Ostrava.^[4] He took part in the 2024–25 UEFA Conference League qualifying. In the decisive match against FC Copenhagen, Markovič was the standout player in his team, saving two penalties in the penalty shootout. Copenhagen won 2–1, however, because Markovič' teammates missed 4 out of their 5 penalties.^[5]

On 7 January 2025, Markovič returned to Slavia Prague following the activation of his buy-back clause, signing a four-and-a-half year deal.^[6]

International career

Markovič represented Czech youth teams ranging from U15, U16, U17, U18, U19 until U21.^[7][8] In 2024 he was called up to the Czech Republic national team for the first time.^[9]
