He comes from Qatar Sport Club, where he played in the emirate's rising league, having previously played in the EHF Cup with Macedonia's HC Kumanovo, which he joined after spending a season at the current Macedonian champions, HC Vardar Skopje.
Despite being only twenty, Darko has played for senior teams since 2009. His greatest achievement was finishing third in the Macedonian league, as well as reaching the country's cup semi-finals. With his Qatari club, he finished fifth.
In international junior competition, Dimitrievski has been capped 46 times by Macedonia, playing in all the major tournaments with his national team. He is therefore one of his country's emerging young prospects, with an impressive record.
Regarding this signing, red-and-white coach Pachi Martí stated that “Darko Dimitrievski is a versatile back-court player who also contributes greatly defensively. He gives our team another rotation option and, once he has logically adapted to Spanish handball and the country, he will certainly be a great help in achieving our objective, which is none other than staying in the Liga Asobal.”
From the board's point of view, its vice-president for communications, Carlos Argente, stated that “We have made a significant financial effort for our budget, but we believe he is a player with great talent and ambition to succeed in a strong league such as ours, and he will certainly achieve it.”
Fertiberia Puerto Sagunto now hopes to resolve all the paperwork for the international transfer as soon as possible, along with the necessary residence permit, as he is a non-EU player, so that he can make his debut for the team as soon as possible.
