Club career

MŠK Žilina

Tomič made his Slovak Super Liga debut for Žilina against DAC Dunajská Streda on 25 August 2018. Seven minutes before stoppage time Tomič was replaced by Roland Gerebenits. The match concluded in a goal-less tie.[4]

International career

Tomič was first recognised in Slovak senior national team nomination in November 2022 by Francesco Calzona being listed as an alternate for two friendly fixtures against Montenegro and Marek Hamšík's retirement game against Chile.[5] However, his spot in the 27-man squad was short after taken by Matúš Rusnák as Tomič was not released for international duties by Slovácko.[6] In December 2022, he was nominated for senior national team prospective players' training camp at NTC Senec.[7]

Tomič first joined the national team in March 2023, when Calzona, once more, recognised him in the shortlisted nomination. This was Tomič's first competitive senior national team nomination, ahead of two home UEFA Euro 2024 qualifiers against Luxembourg and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Calzona named Tomič as one of the limited options for the right back position in place of aging veteran Peter Pekarík.[8] Tomič made his debut in the national team on 23 March 2023 at Štadión Antona Malatinského in Trnava during the first qualifier against Luxembourg. Tomič came on after 81 minutes of play as a replacement for Pekarík with the score still at 0–0. The match concluded in the same upsetting goal-less draw.[9][10]
