Career

Živković started playing football at Partizan at the age of 8. In 1998, he signed a six-year contract for the club. After several years of playing on loans with Teleoptik and Zvezdara, scoring 12 league goals with the latter in the 2001–02 season, Živković returned to Partizan for the 2002–03 season. In the 2003–04 season, he played with Sartid Smederevo, scoring six league goals in 19 appearances. In the following next years, Živković also played with OFK Beograd and Voždovac in the national top flight, before playing in the lower leagues with several clubs.

In 2009, Živković traveled to Australia for a trial with A-League club Central Coast Mariners.[2] However, he signed with the Serbian-backed club Bonnyrigg White Eagles, playing in the NSW Premier League.

In 2012, Živković signed to play with Popinci in the Vojvodina lower league.[3]
