Frane Vojković (pronounced as /hr/;[1] [2] born 20 December 1996) is a retired Croatian footballer who most recently played as an attacking midfielder for NK Lokomotiva Zagreb.
Vojković joined the HNK Hajduk Split academy at the age of 6, and advanced through the ranks, playing for the national team in all the categories from U14 upwards. A precocious player, he made his U17 national team debut at the age of 15,[3] becoming a first-team regular there, while, despite being born in the last days of 1996, he played for the '95 generation, helping it the national U17 championship.[4] However, his career was brought to a halt by a string of serious injuries, making him miss every match between November 2013 and February 2015. Returning to football in early 2015, he played another two matches for the Croatia U19 team and two further matches for the third-tier reserves of Hajduk, before yet another injury in March 2015.
He returned to training in the winter of 2015/16, still impressing enough to receive a 3.5-year long professional contract, despite effectively being forced out of the game for more than two years.[5] He made his first-team debut in the 27.2.2016 1-0 away loss against HNK Rijeka, coming it at half-time for Toma Bašić[6]
In September 2017, Vojković was loaned to HNK Cibalia after being given little chance at Hajduk Split. During his time at Cibalia he had just few appearances mostly because of injuries.
In July 2018, Vojković was once again loaned to Prva HNL club NK Rudeš along with Anthony Kalik.
Frane has represented Croatia in all categories from U14 upwards. He made his U17 national team debut at the age of 15, becoming a first-team regular there, while, despite being born in the last days of 1996, he played for the '95 generation, helping it the national U17 championship.
