Club career

Antonio Asanović passed through the youth ranks of Hajduk Split, playing primarily as an offensive midfielder. He finished his first senior season with NK Primorac 1929. Reinvented as a centre back in Stobreč, he received a stipend contract with Hajduk, remaining on a season-long loan in Primorac, which became Hajduk's reserve team. The termination of his contract came at the beginning of the 2012–2013 season by mutual agreement. After a trial with Valenciennes, on 11 January 2013, he signed a 6-month contract with the Romanian Liga I club Turnu Severin.,^[2][3] where he would become a permanent fixture until the end of the season, which saw the club's relegation.
