Club career

Zemplín Michalovce

Petrik is a product of Zemplín academy. He signed his first professional in 2022, signing until June 2025.[3] He made his debut for the club on 8 April 2022, in a 3–1 loss against Liptovský Mikuláš.[4] Petrik scored his first professional goal after coming on for Matúš Marcin in the 69th minute against Spartak Trnava in a 4–1 loss.[5] The goal made Petrik the all time youngest goal scorer in Zemplín Michalovce history, with the record set at the age of 17 years, 5 months, and 10 days.[6][7] In August 2024, he signed an extension to his contract with Michalovce, keeping him at the club until the end of the 2026/27 season.[8]

Loan to Humenné

Petrik joined FK Humenné on 16 February 2025 on a 6 month loan.[9] He scored his first goal from the club in a 1–1 draw against FC Petržalka in the league,[10][11] scoring in the 67th minute of the game following 4 red cards.[12][13] Despite good performances, Petrik would not be able to help his team survive in the 2. Liga.[14]

Return and loan to Slávia TU Košice

After his loan to Humenné, Petrik returned to Zemplín Michalovce. He was a part of the squad ahead of the 2025–26 league season.[15] However, due to an injury in a pre-season friendly, Petrik would miss out on the majority of the games in the regular season of the Slovak First Football League.[16] He was a part of the Zemplín squad ahead of the winter preparations in Turkey.[17][18][19]

On 18 February 2026, it was announced that Petrík would be returning to the second division, this time joining newly promoted side Slávia TU Košice on a 6-month loan.[20][21] He debuted in a 1–0 loss against Dynamo Malženice, playing 60 minutes of the game.[22] He scored in his next match, a 1–0 win over FC Petržalka, scoring the winning goal in the 40th minute.[23]
