Career

edit

Plavotić began his career playing with the reserve sides Admira Wacker II and FC Schalke 04 II before joining English side Bristol City on 31 January 2017.[3] He was immediately loaned out to League Two side Cheltenham Town,[4] where he made his professional debut in a 1–1 draw against Newport County.[5] Plavotić joined Barnet on loan on 31 January 2018.[6] He made one appearance, at home to Notts County, but after the departure of Graham Westley, new manager Martin Allen announced that Plavotic's loan had been cancelled as there was not enough room for him due to the size of the squad.[7]

On 26 September 2018, Plavotić signed for Floridsdorfer AC.[8] On 28 May 2021, he moved to fellow league club SV Ried on a deal until June 2023.[9]

On 22 June 2023, Plavotić signed for Austria Wien.[10]
