Career

edit

Pavičić joined Lokomotiva on two loans from Dinamo Zagreb in order to get first team chances. He scored his first goal for the club against Zadar in a 2–0 away win.[1] After returning from loan,[2] it was announced that he would debut against his old club Lokomotiva.[3] He came in the match as a 74th-minute substitute for Junior Fernandes as Dinamo won the match 2–0.[4] Zoran Mamić, the coach of Dinamo Zagreb said: "Pavičić represents the future of Dinamo and maybe soon he will be in a very narrow choice for the first team."[5] On 1 September 2017, Pavičić was loaned to Rijeka until January 2018.[6] In January 2018, following the end of the loan, Pavičić signed a 4+12-year contract with Rijeka.[7] After leaving Rijeka in summer 2022, he joined Konyaspor as a free agent, being followed by his teammate Robert Murić.[8]

On 20 June 2023, he signed a three-year contract with Aris. [9]

On January 16, 2024, the Dinamo Bucharest club announced that it had signed a contract with Domagoj, the period of the contract not being mentioned. He ended his loan in May 2024 and returned to Aris.
