Club career

OFK Petrovac

Kopitović started his career with OFK Petrovac. During his time with Petrovac, he was named the revelation of the 2015/2016 in the Montenegrin First League, scoring 13 goals and earning a transfer to OFK Titograd.[1]

Return to OFK Petrovac

Kopitović returned to Petrovac after 2 seasons away where he was unable to replicate the form that saw him transferring to OFK Titograd. In total, since he left Petrovac, he had only managed to score 7 for OFK Titograd and just a solitary goal for FK Kom.[1]

Entering the winter break, Kopitović was the second top-scorer in the Montenegro top tier with 8 goals from 19 appearances for the 2019/2020 Montenegrin First League, before he decided to transfer to Singapore Premier League side Tampines Rovers FC.[2][3][4]

Tampines Rovers

Kopitović signed for Tampines Rovers FC for the 2020 Singapore Premier League season and opened his goal scoring account on his debut, netting in a 5-3 defeat to Bali United F.C. in the 2020 AFC Champions League qualifying play-offs.[2][5][6] He scored in his second competitive game as well, helping the Stags to a 2-1 victory over PSM Makassar in the 2020 AFC Cup opener.[7][8][9] Kopitović has enjoyed a brilliant start to life in Singapore, scoring 5 goals in his first 5 appearances for the Stags, in friendlies and continental competitions, ahead of the season opener on 21 Feb 2020.[10]

Kopitovic won his first silverware with the Stags in the 2020 Singapore Community Shield, scoring in a 3-0 win over Hougang United.[11]

Kopitovic continued his fine start for the Stags, scoring in a 1-0 win over Balestier Khalsa in the season opener, bringing his goal tally for the club to 7 goals in 8 games.[12]
