Club career

Trivunović came through the youth system of Red Star Belgrade, but failed to make his official first team debut. He instead went on loans to several domestic clubs. After his contract expired in 2005, Trivunović joined ČSK Čelarevo, displaying performances that would secure him a move to newly promoted Serbian SuperLiga side Mladost Apatin in 2006. He subsequently spent two seasons at both Vojvodina and OFK Beograd, before moving abroad in 2011.

Following a season in Azerbaijan, Trivunović returned to OFK Beograd in 2012. He also played for Spartak Subotica before joining OFK Bačka in 2014. During his four and a half seasons with the club, Trivunović helped them earn promotion to the Serbian SuperLiga for the first time ever in 2016. He would move to Serbian League Vojvodina side ČSK Čelarevo in the 2019 winter transfer window.

In 2020, Trivunović accepted an offer from Vojvodina League South club Hajduk Divoš.[1] He simultaneously started working with the youth setup at Soko Nova Gajdobra,[2] also taking on a role as first team coach.[3] In 2021, Trivunović became player-manager of Soko Nova Gajdobra, helping them win promotion.[4]

International career

On 12 November 2010, the 30-year-old Trivunović received his first call-up to the Serbia national team by manager Vladimir Petrović,[5] making his debut as a second-half substitute for Nenad Milijaš and providing an assist for Nikola Žigić's winning goal in a 1–0 away friendly win over Bulgaria five days later.[6] He scored his first international goal in his second cap, sealing the 2–0 victory away at Israel on 9 February 2011.[7] In total, Trivunović was capped six times for Serbia.[8]
