Lovre Kalinić (born 3 April 1990) is a Croatian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Hajduk Split in the Prva HNL.

Club career

Lovre Kalinić made his HNK Hajduk Split debut on 23 April 2011, under manager Ante Miše at the age of 21 years and 20 days, in a Prva HNL match against NK Slaven Belupo, which his side won 2-1.[1]

After loans to Junak Sinj in 2009, Novalja in 2010 and Karlovac in 2012, Hajduk managed Igor Tudor brought Lovre Kalinić back to Hajduk Split to be the number one goalkeeper for the 2013-14 season.

In the 2015-16 season, Kalinić set a new record for most consecutive minutes without a goal conceded in the 1. HNL. The goalkeeper went eight games, or 775 minutes, without conceding a goal.[2] The previous record was held by Zoran Slavica, who went 711 minutes without conceding a goal in the Prva HNL.

As a result of being part of Croatia's UEFA Euro 2016 squad, Kalinić missed the first three rounds of Hajduk's 2016-17 season, being granted an extended holiday by Hajduk boss Marijan Pušnik. He made his return on 28 July 2016, where Hajduk defeated FC Oleksandriya 3-0 in the Third Round of the 2016-17 UEFA Europa League qualifying at CSC Nika Stadium, keeping a clean sheet.[3] In September 2016, Kalinić signed a new five-year contract with Hajduk.[4]
