Club Career

Dinamo Zagreb

Born in Zagreb, Marin started his youth career with ZET, before signing for the academy of Dinamo Zagreb in 2009. In spite of being strongly linked to Milan, Manchester City, Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus in September 2017, he signed a three-year long professional contract with the club on 9 October 2017. On 19 May 2018, he made his first team debut, replacing Petar Stojanovic in a 3–1 victory over Inter Zapresic.

On 12 March 2019, in a UEFA Youth League round of 16 game against Liverpool, he provided Leon Sipos with an assist for the equalizer. The game ended as a 1–1 draw and saw Dinamo win 5–4 on penalties. On 3 April, in a quarter-final against Chelsea, he netted a brace to put Dinamo two up; however, Chelsea came from behind with Luke McCormick's brace and defeated Dinamo 4–2 on penalties. On 11 December, in another Youth League campaign, he scored the only goal in a 1–0 victory over Manchester City and secured Dinamo's spot in the play-offs.

After the departure of Dani Olmo in January 2020, Marin inherited his number 7 shirt. On 6 June 2020, he scored his first senior goal for Dinamo in a 3–1 win over Varazdin.

Loan to Monza

On 1 October 2020, Marin was sent on a one-year loan to newly-promoted Serie B side Monza, with an option for purchase which becomes an obligation under certain conditions. He made his debut on 7 November, coming on as a substitute for Dany Mota in a 2–0 home victory over Frosinone.
