Career

After failing to receive any playing time at Partizan in the 1990–91 season, Puača moved to OFK Beograd,[2] making his first senior appearances during the 1991–92 Yugoslav First League.[3] He spent two more years with the Romantičari, before switching to Obilić in 1994. During the 1996 winter transfer window, Puača was transferred to Red Star Belgrade.

Following his stint with Helsingborgs IF in the 1997 Allsvenskan, Puača moved to Italy and joined Serie B club Cremonese in 1998, initially on trial.[4] He appeared eight times and scored two goals in the second half of the 1998–99 season, as the club finished bottom of the table.

After playing for Vojvodina and Zeta in the First League of FR Yugoslavia, Puača moved to Cyprus and joined AEK Larnaca in the summer of 2001. He was released in February 2002.[5] Before retiring from the game, Puača also briefly played for Borac Čačak and Nyíregyháza Spartacus.
