Club career
[edit]Kronaveter began his football career playing for hometown club Železničar Maribor at the age of ten.[1] On 16 March 2003, at the age of 16, he made his senior début for the team during the Slovenian Second League match against Jadran Hrpelje-Kozina, appearing as a second-half substitute.[2] In the summer of 2006, he joined the top division side Drava Ptuj and signed his first professional contract.[3] In January 2010, he signed a one-year contract with Rudar Velenje.[4]
In August 2010, Kronaveter moved abroad for the first time and joined Energie Cottbus, signing a three-year contract.[5] However, his contract was terminated in June 2012, and he signed for Hungarian side Győri ETO soon afterwards.[6] With Győri, he won his first career honour as the team won the 2012–13 national title.[7] He left Győri in September 2014 by mutual consent.[8] After almost six months without a club, he signed for Romanian side Petrolul Ploiești in March 2015.[9]
In June 2015, Kronaveter returned to Slovenia and signed for Olimpija Ljubljana.[10] With Olimpija, he won two league titles (2015–16 and 2017–18); in 2015–16, he was also the league's top goalscorer with 17 goals.[11] In June 2019, Kronaveter signed a two-year contract with Olimpija's arch-rivals Maribor.[12] For Maribor, he scored on his début during the 2019–20 UEFA Champions League first qualifying round match against Valur, converting a late-game penalty kick for a 3–0 victory.[13]
International career
[edit]Between 2005 and 2007, Kronaveter played for Slovenian under-20 and under-21 teams, for which he scored one goal in eight appearances.[14] He made his debut for the senior team on 30 May 2016 in a 0–0 draw against Sweden.[15]
Kronaveter scored his first international goal for Slovenia on 8 October 2016 in a 1–0 victory over Slovakia.[16]
Personal life
[edit]Rok Kronaveter was born in Maribor,[17] Slovenia (then part of Yugoslavia), and lived in Malečnik as a toddler, before moving to Maribor at the age of two.[18] His father was a footballer, while his mother was a handball player.[18] His older brother, David, is also a former footballer.[18][19] Growing up his idol was Brazilian forward Ronaldo.[18]
In 2012, Kronaveter married his long-term partner Sandra. He has two children, a daughter Adriana (born 2011) and a son Lukas (2013).[18][19]
