Biography
Born in Sweden to Croatian parents, Čiča started playing football at the age of 5, for the local Croatian immigrant football team NK Croatia Malmö.

Čiča debuted in 2009 for the senior squad of his third-tier team aged only 15, scoring the match-winning goal. He also starred that year in the documentary "I Zlatans fotspår" ("In Zlatans footsteps"), a competition for the most talented young player of the Malmö region, where he emerged as the winner.[1] He got more chances in the 2010 season of Division 1 Södra, establishing himself in the first team squad, and earning a call-up for the Croatian U-17 national football team.
