Mario Mamić was born in 1982 as the son of Zdravko Mamić (formerly leader of Dinamo Zagreb) and his first wife Nada. He graduated from the Faculty of Economics of the University of Zagreb. Already at the beginning of his career, he joined his father in the football business – after Mamić senior had to close his agency MSA International due to a conflict of interest, son Mario opened the ASA International agency to represent football players in 2006.
Career and football management
Mario Mamić stood out as a sports manager in Dinamo Zagreb. He took over the management of the ASA International agency, which was previously managed by father Zdravko. In that period, he represented numerous Dinamo players, including Dejan Lovren, Mateo Kovačić, Luka Modrić, Šima Vrsaljko and Ognjen Vukojević. For example, he sold Lovren to Lyon in 2010 for around nine million euros. Mamić thus became recognizable in the football world, but controversies grew in parallel with his affairs: Dinamo paid intermediary commissions to offshore companies related to Mamići, which later led to investigations. After his arrest in 2015 with his father and others, Mario moved his business to Bosnia and Herzegovina, where he registered companies for consulting, sports management and real estate.

Legal problems and trials
Mario Mamić is most often mentioned in the media because of his participation in the so-called “Dinamo II” affair. USKOK, together with his father Zdravko and uncle Zoran, accused him of extracting around 18.8 million euros from Dinamo through false mediations. At the County Court in Osijek at the beginning of December 2024, he pleaded guilty to criminal offenses and announced that he “is considered guilty” and that he reached an agreement with Dinamo on compensation for damages. According to the club’s announcements, Mario Mamić must pay Dinamo 2,088,367.45 euros within two and a half months. He was soon sentenced to 16 months in prison. In March 2024, he addressed Ivan Stanić, who stated these monetary amounts as an obligation to the club.
In February 2026, 24sata reported that Mario Mamić, served 10 months (two-thirds of the sentence), was released from prison in Gospić with parole. On that occasion, the lawyer confirmed that Mamić paid his share of the damage to Dinamo and that he “fulfilled all legal conditions” for parole. After being released from prison, the proceedings before the Osijek court are still ongoing, but Mario Mamić is no longer serving his sentence behind bars.
public interest and searches
Mario Mamić is best known to the public as the son of Zdravko Mamić and because of his involvement in Dinamo’s football affairs. The details of his private life outside of football are mostly not publicly exposed, so in search engines there are most often inquiries related to trial and criminal proceedings (how much money he damaged Dinamo, whether he admitted his guilt, how much time he served). The media also deal with his family status (children, wives) and jobs in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
