As a youth player, Šipoš joined the youth academy of Dinamo (Zagreb), Croatia's most successful club.[1]

In 2017, he was sent on loan to Gorica (Croatia) in the Croatian second division.[2]

In 2020, he signed for Latvian side Spartaks after receiving interest from England and Russia.[3]

Before the second half of 2020–21 season, Šipoš signed for Istra in the Croatian top flight on loan.

On 20 August 2021, he joined Italian Serie C club Catania on loan with an option to buy.[4] On 9 April 2022, his loan to Catania was cut short following the club's exclusion from Italian football due to its inability to overcome a number of financial issues.[5]

On 5 August 2022, Šipoš moved on a new loan to Fidelis Andria in Serie C, with an option to buy.[6]

On 7 January 2023, Šipoš signed a 2.5-year contract with Serie C club Trento.[7]
