Career
Monaco
In 2019, Utkus signed his first professional contract with Monaco. In France he played from summer of the 2019.[2][3][4] He appeared for the reserves, competing in Championnat National 2.
Cercle Brugge
In the summer of 2021, Utkus moved to Belgian First Division A club Cercle Brugge.[5] He made his debut on 24 July 2021 in a match against Beerschot which was interrupted after 55 minutes due to heavy rainfall.[6] The match was continued on 27 July, and ended in a 1–0 win for Cercle. Despite being a midfielder, Utkus lined up in the right side of central defense, where he kept a clean sheet.[7]
On 4 August 2022, Cercle Brugge announced that Utkus had suffered a tear in the anterior cruciate ligament and a tear in the meniscus of his knee, which required surgery.[8] The injury effectively ended his season.[9][10] Despite the severity of his injury, he extended his contract with the club on 23 April 2023, signing a deal until 2026.[11]
International career
Utkus made his international debut for the Lithuania national team on 11 November 2020 in a friendly match against the Faroe Islands.[12]
