Club career

edit

Goluža was born in the village of Pješivac-Kula near Stolac. He began his career with RK Mehanika Metković. At the age of 18, he moved to RK Zagreb-Chromos, with which he won two consecutive European Cupsin1992 and 1993.[2]

He won the EHF Cup with RK Metković Jambo in 2000 and the year later the club reached the final again.[3]

Goluža also played in Germany for TuS Nettelstedt-Lübbecke, in France for Paris Saint-Germain and in Hungary for Fotex Veszprém.

International career

edit

He was a member of the Croatian national team that won Olympic gold medals twice: at the 1996 and 2004 Summer Olympics.[4] For over a decade he participated in all medals that Croatia had won at the World Championships (gold in 2003, silver in 1995 and 2005), and at the European Championship (bronze in 1994).

Coaching career

edit

Goluža worked as an assistant coach with the Croatian national team between 2006 and 2010 under the coaching staff of the head coach Lino Červar. He also worked as head coach for RK Siscia once and for RK CO Zagreb in two terms.[5][6][7][8]

In September 2010, Goluža succeeded Červar as the head coach of the Croatian national team,[9][10] guiding Croatia to the bronze medals at the 2012 European Championship, 2012 Summer Olympics and at the 2013 World Championship. In February 2015, following Croatia's surprisingly unsuccessful World Championship in Qatar, he left the bench and was replaced by his assistant Željko Babić.[11]

In April 2017, Goluža became the head coach for HT Tatran Prešov.[12]

Personal life

edit

Goluža is a supporter of the centre-right Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ).[13] He was married Iva Goluža, with whom he has a son Ivan.[14] The couple got divorced after 11 years of marriage, in 2013.[15]
