Darick Kobie Morris (born 15 July 1995) is a Croatian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Slovenian PrvaLiga side Mura.[1]

Club career

Early career

Born in Syracuse, New York to an African-American father and a Croatian mother, Morris moved to Zagreb, Croatia when he was less than a year old.[2] Initially a right winger, he subsequently moved to right-back and then centre-back in the NK Zagreb academy, where he spent almost his entire youth career.

Dinamo Zagreb

In 2013, as a former Croatia U17 international, he moved to the Dinamo Zagreb Academy. In 2014, he became a regular in Dinamo's reserve team, a position he would hold for four subsequent seasons, mainly in the Druga HNL. Morris made his first-team debut in 2015, in the 7–1 cup win against Oštrc Zlatar, scoring in the process.[3]

The same year, on 25 September, he made his Prva HNL debut as well, coming in for Josip Pivarić in the second half of a 4–1 home win against Osijek.[4] He would go on to make just one further top-tier appearance for the club, in a 1–0 win against Lokomotiva in September 2016.[5]

Domžale

In June 2018, Morris signed a three-year contract with Slovenian PrvaLiga club Domžale.[6] He made his debut for Domžale on 5 August 2018, in a 5–1 away loss against Mura.[7] Morris left the club in June 2019.

Tuzla City

On 14 June 2019, Morris signed a two-year contract with Bosnian Premier League club Tuzla City.[8] He made his debut on 20 July 2019, in a 5–1 away league win against Zvijezda 09.[9]

International career

Morris represented Croatia at various youth levels. He played for the under-17, under-19, under-20, and under-21 national teams.[10]
