Rudar Velenje On 2 November 2016, Iharoš signed a two-year contract with Slovenian PrvaLiga club Rudar Velenje, committing himself to the club until the end of the 2017–18 season. On 7 May 2017, he scored in a 4–2 home victory against Olimpija Ljubljana, a goal that was later named the goal of the year.
