Kukoč previously played for NK Osijek and HNK Šibenik in the Croatian Prva HNL.[1]
He was known for his aerial abilities, something which most Malaysian defenders lack. His assured performances confirmed Kukoč's status as a fan favourite. While at Perak, he was affectionately nicknamed Cookie by their fans.
Kukoc requested, and was subsequently granted, a release at the end of the 2007 season as he wanted to get married.
