Club career

Grubač played for his hometown club Sutjeska Nikšić in the Yugoslav Second League for three seasons (1988–89, 1989–90, and 1990–91), making just eight appearances.[1][2][3] He joined OFK Beograd in 1993. Over the following years, Grubač would go on to play for several European clubs, including French Le Havre and Portuguese Braga, but would eventually return to OFK Beograd after each brief spell abroad.

In 1998, Grubač was transferred from OFK Beograd to Hamburger SV for a fee of 1.1 million DM.[4] He appeared in 11 Bundesliga games over his two seasons at the club, scoring two goals.[5] In 2000, Grubač made another return to OFK Beograd, before moving to Turkish club Erzurumspor in early 2001.[6]
