Club career

edit

Dupovac started playing with hometown club Sarajevo where, after playing in the youth squad, he debuted as senior in the 2010–11 Bosnian Premier League season.[1]

He played with Sarajevo in the Bosnian Premier League until the winter break of the 2014–15 season, when he moved to Moldovan National Division side Sheriff Tiraspol.[2] Two years later, at the winter break of the 2016–17 season, Dupovac moved to Croatian side Split,[3] playing in the 1. HNL.[1]

The following summer, he left Croatia and moved to Serbia where he signed with SuperLiga side Borac Čačak.[2] He left Borac in June 2018.

On 22 June 2018, after three and a half years he came back to Sarajevo and signed a two-year contract.[4] Dupovac scored his fifth goals for Sarajevo on 10 April 2019, in a 5–0 home win against Sloga Gornje Crnjelovo in the 2018–19 Bosnian Cup semi final game. He scored two goals in that game.[5] In the 2018–19 season, Dupovac won the double with Sarajevo, winning both the Bosnian Premier League and the Bosnian Cup.

He won his second league title with the club on 1 June 2020, though after the 2019–20 Bosnian Premier League season was ended abruptly due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Bosnia and Herzegovina and after which Sarajevo were by default crowned league champions for a second consecutive time.[6] Dupovac extended his contract with Sarajevo on 17 June 2020, lasting until June 2022.[7] On 21 February 2021, he again extended his contract with the club until June 2024.[8]

Dupovac was a member of the Bosnia and Herzegovina U21 team in 2011.[2]
