Lucia Orkic (born June 22, 2005 in Salzburg) is an Austrian-Croatian football player. She plays as a midfielder or defender for FC Red Bull Salzburg (women) in the ÖFB-Frauenliga (1st tier).
In January 2014, she began her club career with SV Austria Salzburg. Lucia Orkić started her career in Austria Salzburg's mixed U-9 team. After playing in the U-10 and U-11 teams, she moved to SV Wals-Grünau during the 2016/17 winter break. She played for SV Wals-Grünau's mixed U-14 team in the 2018/19 season. Orkic also made several appearances for Salzburg's women's U-14 selection this season.
Orkić moved to FC Bergheim in January 2020. The 15-year-old debuted on 6 September 2020, in a 3-0 home win over the second team of FFC Vorderland. It was announced in December 2024 that the women's section of FC Bergheim would compete in the Austrian Bundesliga as FC Red Bull Salzburg Women from the 2025/26 season onwards. Since then Orkić plays in the colors of the Red Bulls.
Due to her Croatian heritage she played for the Croatian U-19 squad for two friendly matches against Slovenia. She played in both games. A month later she helped the team advance to the second round of qualifying for the 2024 Women’s U-19 European Championship. In the heavy defeats against Austria (1–8), Iceland (1–3), and Ireland (0–3) in early April 2024, she played the full 90 minutes in each match.
Just two months later, she received her first call-up to the Croatian senior national team. She made her senior debut on June 4, 2024 versus Kosovo.
