NK Široki Brijeg
Upon his arrival at Dinamo Zagreb in the summer of 2014, Marić was immediately loaned back to Široki Brijeg.[citation needed] He played six games for Široki Brijeg, including four in the Europa League qualifying phase.[citation needed] He scored two goals for Široki Brijeg in the second leg against Gabala in the first qualifying round.[7] On 13 August 2014, Dinamo Zagreb withdrew their loan agreement with Široki Brijeg.[8]
