Career
Vedran Turkalj went through the ranks of NK Rijeka, becoming a Croatian youth international in 2005. His progress was, however, marred by an injury leading to a foot operation, which caused him to miss most of the 2007-2008 season. He would spend two further seasons at the club, unable to fully break in the first team for similar reasons.
In the summer of 2010 he moved to the nearby Druga HNL team NK Pomorac Kostrena, becoming a firm first team fixture and helping the team to secure a third-place finish in the 2010/2011 season and a second-place finish in the 2011/2012 season.
In the following seasons he would become team captain as well, before moving to NK Solin in January 2014.
