Tučić played for the youth teams of Slovenian club Bravo.[1] In 2015, he made his debut appearance for Bravo's first team, which was playing in the Slovenian Third League at the time.[2] In the 2016–17 season, he scored 32 goals in 23 appearances,[1] which made him the top goalscorer of the Third League's Centre Division,[3] as his club won the league title and was promoted to the Slovenian Second League at the end of the season. In July 2017, he joined Slovenian PrvaLiga side Rudar Velenje.[3] In his two years with Rudar, he scored 23 goals in 69 league appearances,[4] and also played in the 2018–19 UEFA Europa League qualifying rounds, where he scored twice against Tre Fiori.[5]

On 2 September 2019, he signed with Belgian club OH Leuven.[6] Tučić made only four league appearances for Leuven until January 2021,[4] when he was loaned out to his former club Bravo, which had been promoted to the Slovenian PrvaLiga by then.[7] In the second part of the 2020–21 PrvaLiga season, he scored 10 goals in 18 league appearances.[4]

In August 2021, Tučić signed for J1 League club Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo.[8]
