The following year, he was transferred to Maribor, where he stayed for three years. After a short stint with Atromitos in 2021, he joined Göztepe in early 2022.

A former youth international for Bosnia and Herzegovina, Pirić made his senior international debut in 2018.

Club career

[edit]

Pirić came through the youth academy of his hometown club Sloboda Tuzla, which he left in June 2012 to join Gradina.[1] He made his professional debut against Velež on 25 August of the same year at the age of 18.[2]

In August 2013, Pirić signed with Belgian team Gent.[3] In the summer of 2014, he returned to Sloboda Tuzla.[4] In February 2017, Pirić moved to Zrinjski Mostar.[5]

On 13 December 2017, Slovenian side Maribor announced that Pirić would join them the following season.[6] He made his competitive debut for the team against Mura on 29 July 2018 and managed to keep a clean sheet.[7] He won his first trophy with Maribor on 15 May 2019, when they were crowned league champions.[8]

In July 2021, Pirić signed a two-year deal with Greek outfit Atromitos.[9] He made his competitive debut for the team against Olympiacos on 12 September, keeping a clean sheet in a goalless draw.[10] In late December, he terminated his contract with Atromitos.[11]

In January 2022, Pirić moved to Turkish side Göztepe on a deal until June 2023.[12] He made his official debut for the club against Konyaspor on 3 April.[13]
