Jure Balkovec (born 9 September 1994) is a Slovenian professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Turkish Süper Lig club Alanyaspor and the Slovenia national team.

Club career

In January 2018, Balkovec left Domžale and signed for Italian Serie B outfit Bari, only to move to Hellas Verona after half a year due to Bari's financial collapse.

In September 2020, Balkovec moved to play in Turkey for Fatih Karagümrük. In summer 2022, he joined compatriot Miha Mevlja at fellow Turkish side Alanyaspor.

International career

Balkovec made his debut for Slovenia in an October 2018 Nations League match against Cyprus, coming on as a 58th-minute substitute for Bojan Jokić.
