David Kašnik (born 16 January 1987) is a Slovenian footballer who plays as a defender for Austrian side USV Wies.

Club career

Kašnik started his career in Dravograd, and played as a forward and a midfielder in his younger days. When he was 14 years old, a serious knee injury prevented him from playing football for a year and a half. He fully recovered and moved to Olimpija Ljubljana after an initial trial. He signed a contract in August 2008.

He rarely played in his first season when Olimpija won the second division. During the summer of 2009 the majority of the experienced players left the club and Kašnik found himself in the first team.
