Club career

Vojvodina

Born in Bački Jarak, Ivanić came through the youth academy of Vojvodina, before being loaned to Proleter Novi Sad in order to get senior football experience. He made 24 appearances and scored five goals in the 2012–13 Serbian First League. In the summer of 2013, Ivanić returned to Vojvodina, appearing in a 2–0 home win over Budapest Honvéd in the first leg of the Europa League second qualifying round. He was sent on loan again to Proleter Novi Sad, before returning to Vojvodina in the 2014 winter transfer window.[1] Upon his return to the club, Ivanić played regularly under manager Branko Babić, helping his team win the 2013–14 Serbian Cup.

In the 2014–15 season, Ivanić became one of the team's most influential players, making 26 league appearances and scoring 10 goals, one less than Mijat Gaćinović. During the final days of the summer 2015 transfer window, Partizan offered Vojvodina €1.5 million for Ivanić, but Ivanić rejected it, as he insisted on refusing offers from Vojvodina's rivals Partizan and Red Star Belgrade.[2]

BATE Borisov

On 2 February 2016, Mirko signed a contract with BATE Borisov.[3]

On 26 November 2017, in the last game of the season BATE Borisov were 3-2 down against FC Gorodeya, Mirko scored the last minute equaliser against them to make it 3-3 which was enough to see them win the league on goal difference against league rivals Dinamo Minsk.

International career

Ivanić made his debut for the Serbian national under-21 team in a friendly against Italy U21 on 30 March 2015.[4] He was subsequently selected to represent his country at the 2015 UEFA European Under-21 Championship, but failed to make an appearance. On March 14, 2017, however, Ivanić received a call-up to the men's national team of Montenegro in a 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Poland on March 26, 2017.[5] In the match against Poland, which Montenegro lost 1-2, Ivanić made his debut coming on the field as a substitute for Damir Kojašević in the 80th minute.[6] On 27 March 2018 he scored his first goal in the national team in a 2–2 draw against Turkey.[7]
