Club career
Perošević started his career playing at youth level for his hometown club Osijek with whom he had signed a scholarship contract in February 2010.[2] He made his debut for the first team as a late substitute in a 2–0 win against Cibalia on 13 May 2010 in the last round of 2009–10 season.[3] After injuries kept him out of action for a year, he returned for the second part of the 2011–12 season.[4][5] He scored his first goal in Prva HNL in a 2–1 defeat against Cibalia on 11 March 2012, converting a first-half penalty.[6] He finished the season as Osijek's top league goalscorer with seven goals.
On 30 August 2017, Perošević moved abroad for the first time, signing for Hungarian club Puskás Akadémia.[7] A year later, he moved on to Al-Ittihad Kalba SC in the United Arab Emirates.
On 23 September 2021, Perošević moved to India and signed with Indian Super League side SC East Bengal.[8][9] He scored 4 goals in 14 matches as his team finished in bottom of the league table.
In January 2023, Perošević returned to Croatia, signing for Slaven Belupo.[10]
On 21 August 2023, he joined Polish I liga club Podbeskidzie Bielsko-Biała on a one-year deal, with an extension option for another year.[11] On 4 January 2024, he left the club by mutual consent.[12]
