In 2009, Golubar returned to Croatia and signed with First League side Varaždin, near his home town.[3]

In the summer 2012, Golubar signed with Slovenian Second League side Zavrč.[2][3] In his first season in Slovenia, he made 24 appearances and scored 13 goals, tying Amer Krcić for top scorer in the league.[3][5] Zavrč won the league that season and earned promotion to the PrvaLiga.[5]

In the 2013–14 PrvaLiga, Golubar made 32 appearances for Zavrč, scoring five goals, and helping the club to a fifth-place finish, missing out on a Europa League spot by five points.[3]

Olimpija Ljubljana[edit]

Second spell at Zavrč[edit]

Shortly after leaving Olimpija, Golubar returned to Zavrč for a second spell, making 17 league appearances and scoring four goals that season. [3]

Second spell at Varaždin[edit]

In summer 2015, Golubar returned to Croatia and signed with Varaždin for a second spell, this time in the Third League.[6]

Midway through the 2016–17 season, Golubar left Varaždin to sign with Croatian Second League club Lučko.[3] Over the remainder of the season, he made seven league appearances and scored two goals.[3]
