In the current season with the Bulgarian team, Maraš made 3 appearances and provided 1 assist. During the previous year, he found the net 8 times in 39 matches, including in the Conference League. His move to Bulgaria followed a productive spell in Montenegro with Mladost Donja Gorica, where he scored 15 goals in 37 appearances. His contract with Botev Plovdiv is set to expire on June 30, 2027, and his Transfermarkt value is listed at €450k. Prior to his transfer to Greece, Hungarian club Diósgyőr had also been linked with the striker.
