Goran Tomić (born 18 March 1977) is a retired professional Croatian footballer. He is currently the assistant manager of Chinese side Shenzhen FC. Goran is a popular figure with an excellent reputation in China, having spent more than 3 years managing in the country. His most recent spell as a manager was in the Croatian Prva HNL with NK Istra 1961. Previous managerial success came at Tianjin Songjiang in 2015, and Beijing Baxy during 2013 and 2014. He started his managerial career with his home town club, HNK Šibenik, also in the Croatian Prva HNL.
Tomić started his professional football career at his hometown club HNK Šibenik of the Croatian Prva HNL, where he grew up no more than 50 meters away from the stadium. He progressed through all the age groups within the club before finally breaking into the first team in 1994. In 1997 he moved to AEK Athens, who paid €700,000 for his services, before moving once again in 1998 to Italy. He played just under 30 games in Serie A for both Reggina and Vicenza scoring 3 goals in the process. His most successful spell was between 2001 and 2005 in the Austrian Bundesliga, playing over 60 times for FC Salzburg scoring 19 goals. He had a rather short and forgettable stint with Lierse S.K. in Belgium, before ending his career in 2006 due to a lingering foot injury, after a short spell with Chinese League One club Henan Construction.
Following his retirement as a player, Tomić was first appointed as the head coach of the HNK Šibenik U19 team in September 2009. One year later he moved into the role of first team assistant manager. On 1 September 2011, Vjekoslav Lokica departed the club and Tomić realised a boyhood dream, being appointed as the new manager of HNK Šibenik.
