After Łódź, Đurić also played for Olimpik, Zrinjski Mostar once again (with Zrinjski he again won the 2013–14 Bosnian Premier League) and Vitez. He totalled 202 official matches in all competitions for Zrinjski, which placed him third behind Pero Stojkić and Mario Ivanković on the club's all-time appearances list.[4]
On 17 June 2016, Đurić signed a two-year contract with Radnik Bijeljina.[5] While at Radnik, he also became the club captain. In June 2018, he extended his contract with Radnik. On 24 August 2019, he scored a hat-trick in Radnik's 3–0 home league win against Mladost Doboj Kakanj.[6]
