Club career

Early career

As a junior, Rogic played for Woden Weston and Tuggeranong United. In 2009 he moved to his first senior club, playing with ANU FC in the ACT Premier League. In 2011, Rogic moved to play one season with Belconnen United in the same league. The same year, he was also selected to join the Nike Football Academy after winning The Chance, a competition which he won alongside seven other young footballers amongst 75,000 other hopefuls around the world.[2]

Central Coast Mariners

On 2 January 2012, Rogic signed with A-League club Central Coast Mariners.[3] He made his professional debut in the 2011–12 A-League season on 21 January 2012 in a Round 18 clash against Adelaide United, which the Mariners won 3–2.[4] Tom scored his first goal for the club in a 2–1 loss to Melbourne Victory on 10 February 2012,[5] and was later named the A-League's young player of the month for February 2012.[6]

At the beginning of the 2012–13 season, Rogic was rejected from all of his local trials A-League clubs, opting to remain with the Mariners.[7] Rogic scored his first goals of the season in the home victory against Sydney FC, scoring two goals to help the Mariners win 7–2 over the Sky Blues. On 5 December 2012, Rogic was awarded NAB Young footballer of the Month Award for November 2012, as well as simultaneously being the second nomination for NAB Young footballer of the Year Award.[8] In only his first full A-League season, Rogic received interest from English Premier League sides Reading and Fulham, La Liga sides Celta Vigo and Rayo Vallecano, and Belgian Pro League club Club Brugge.[9]

Celtic

On 9 January 2013, it was reported that Rogic had joined Scottish Premier League champions Celtic at their training camp in Spain. On 16 January 2013, it was reported that terms had been agreed for the transfer of Rogic from Central Coast Mariners to Celtic, subject to personal terms.[10] The deal was completed the next day.[11] Rogić made his Celtic début on 9 February 2013 in a Scottish Premier League match against Inverness Caledonian Thistle; setting up Kris Commons with a cross to score the equaliser, bringing the score to 1–1. Celtic went on to win 3–1 and Rogic won the Man of the Match award.[12] He made a further seven appearances for Celtic that season.[13]

The following season saw Rogic make only a handful of appearances for Celtic,[14] and he was sent out on loan to Melbourne Victory in January 2014. His spell back in Australia was marred by ankle and groin injuries, and these continued to trouble him on his return to Celtic in the summer of 2014.[15] He required to have two operations on his groin, and didn't play again until March 2015 when he made his comeback in Celtic's Development Side match against Motherwell.[16]

Melbourne Victory (loan)

On 17 January 2014, it was announced that Rogic would join Melbourne Victory on loan until May 2014. After Celtic pushed back offers from Sydney FC and Central Coast Mariners, and Vegalta Sendai pulled out, Melbourne Victory swooped in and sealed the loan deal, which placed Rogic back in the A-League after rising to fame with Central Coast Mariners.[17] A recurring groin injury limited Rogic's appearances for Melbourne,[18] and the injury eventually saw him miss the 2014 FIFA World Cup and 2015 AFC Asian Cup for Australia.[19]

Return to Celtic

On 9 August 2015, Rogic made his first start for Celtic in almost two years, scoring the opening goal in a 2–0 win against Partick Thistle.[20] Rogic began to regularly feature in the Celtic team, and scored further goals against St Johnstone and Dundee in the weeks that followed.[21][22]
