Club career

Gabrić played before 1991 in Yugoslav clubs Čelik Zenica and HNK Rijeka. After Yugoslav dissolution, he played for two years in Greece with PAOK (1991–1993),[1] and in Croatia with Pazinka (1993–1994), and Hajduk Split (1994–1999).

International career

He made his debut for Croatia in an October 1990 friendly match against the United States, coming on as a 70th-minute substitute for Dražen Ladić. As Croatia was still part of Yugoslavia at the time, the game is deemed unofficial. He has earned a total of 9 caps (two of them not official), scoring no goals. He was the regular reserve goalkeeper of the national team between 1990 and 1997 and was part of the Euro 1996 squad. His final international was a September 1997 World Cup qualification match away against Denmark.[2]

Personal life

His son Drago is also playing football in midfielder role with HNK Rijeka. Drago's twin Paškvalina has been one of the best female footballers in Croatia for a number of years playing for Viktoria Slavonski Brod and ŽNK Zagreb as well as being on trial with Charlton Athletic FC of England.
