In a match against Red Star Belgrade on 3 March 2013, Jovanović made his SuperLiga debut under coach Marko Nikolić when Filip Kljajić got the red card, and Jovanović was substituted in from the bench. After the 2013–14 season, Jovanović spent as a reserve for Filip Kljajić and Branislav Danilović, Jovanović started 2014–15 as the first-choice goalkeeper of coach Milan Milanović. However, after several games and some bad reactions, Jovanović left the club during the winter break off-season.
