Club career

MFK Zemplín Michalovce

Trusa made his

Fortuna Liga debut for Zemplín Michalovce against iClinic Sereď on 16 February 2019. He replaced Peter Kolesár in the stoppage time of the 1:0 home victory.[1]

On 14 September 2019, he was seriously injured in a home league fixture against AS Trenčín, when he was tackled by Cole Kpekawa in the 8th minute of the match. He suffered tibia and fibula fracture and it was reported that he was going to be unavailable for up to 12 months.[2] Trusa, however, managed to recover in 6 months.

On 1 July 2023, Trusa re-joined former manager from Viktoria Plzeň Adrián Guľa at DAC Dunajská Streda, signing a three-year contract.[3]

International career

Trusa was first recognised in a senior national team nomination on 23 May 2022, while still being active in the U21 team although he remained unnominated for June international fixtures following a suspension ahead of a qualifier against Malta.[4] Senior team Štefan Tarkovič recognised him as an alternate ahead of four UEFA Nations League fixtures against Belarus, Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan scheduled for June.[5]
