Born in Vinkovci, Dabro went through the ranks of his hometown club HNK Cibalia, becoming a part of the Croatian youth national teams early as 2010, debuting as a 13-year old for the national U15 team.[2] On March 30, 2013, he became the youngest player to debut in the Prva HNL, aged 16 years and 2 days, coming in from the bench in the 78th minute during the 1-0 away loss vs. RNK Split for Tomislav Mazalović.[3]
In the summer of 2013 Dabro joined the youth ranks of the Italian giants ACF Fiorentina for an alleged sum of 1 million Euros.[4] Not breaking through to Fiorentina's senior team, he was loaned back to HNK Cibalia in January 2016,[5] rejoining the club permanently in the summer of 2016.
Following Cibalia's relegation, Dabro moved in the summer of 2018 to Gorica,[6] but left the club in December of the same year, having made just 3 league caps for the team.
In 2019, he then joined NK Bravo.[7]
In April 2022, Dabro joined Chinese Super League club Beijing Guoan.[8][9]
Dabro was a member of each Croatian youth national football team from U-14 to U-20 level, having debuted for the U-15 national team as a 13-year old in 2010.[10]
