Perspective

Born in Varaždin, Katanec kicked off his career with local club Varteks and was promoted to the senior side in 2007.[citation needed] In July 2008, he was released by the club.[1] After having represented Sesvete in the Croatian top tier, he moved abroad, signing for Slovenian club Gorica.[2] On 1 November 2010, he returned to Varteks, renamed NK Varaždin a few months earlier, on loan.[3]

On 3 February 2011, Katanec joined Austrian non league club Baumgarten.[4] On 1 March 2013, he moved to Bosnian club Radnik after a stint with Gradina of the same country.[5] After a single season with the club, he joined Zrinjski.[6] He featured for the club in the UEFA Champions League qualifying round match against Slovenian club Maribor.[7]

After having made 69 appearances for the Bosnian clubs,[8] Katanec switched clubs and countries, signing for Italian Serie B club Spezia on 20 January 2015.[9] However, he failed to make any appearance for the Italian side and hence subsequently joined Croatian second tier club Gorica in September till the end of the season.[10]

On 29 December 2015, Katanec returned to Bosnian club Zrinjski, penning a deal which would keep him in the club till 1 July 2018.[11] On 17 January 2018, he moved to Hungarian club Mezőkövesdi SE.[12]
