He made his professional debut on March 27, 2010, in New England's opening game of the 2010 MLS season against Los Angeles Galaxy.[3] He was waived by New England on March 31, 2011,[4] having appeared in 20 league games for the Revs during his rookie season.

After being waived by New England, Sinovic went on trial with fellow Major League Soccer club Real Salt Lake in April 2011,[5] and played a couple of games in the MLS Reserve Division, but was not offered a contract by the team. After leaving Salt Lake, Sinovic signed with Sporting Kansas City on May 10, 2011.[6]

Sinovic was left exposed by Sporting Kansas City in the 2011 MLS Expansion Draft and was selected by expansion side Montreal Impact.[7] However, five days later, Sinovic was shipped back to Kansas City with allocation money in exchange for Davy Arnaud.[8]
