Karlo Šimek (born 3 June 1988) is a Croatian footballer who plays for NK Polet Tuhovec as a defender.

Club career[edit]

A graduate of the Varteks youth academy, Šimek was promoted to the senior squad in 2007, which changed its name to NK Varaždin in mid-2010. In January 2012, he had a try-out with Kazakh club Shakhter Karagandy in Turkey, but in the process, he injured his leg.[2] In the same month, Istra 1961 also expressed their desire to sign him.[3] He ultimately signed for Karlovac after having made 103 appearances for Varteks / Varaždin.[2]

After a stint with Croatian club Zelina, Šimek moved abroad, signing for Austrian club Lafnitz.[4] He went on to represent Gorica and Deutschkreutz,[5][1] before signing for Međimurje in January 2016.[6] In January 2017, he signed with a different NK Varaždin, a club unassociated with the one he started his career with, but which went bankrupt in 2015.[7]
