Career

A product of the FC St. Pauli academy, Filipović played mostly in their reserve team, making his debut, and his only Bundesliga appearance so far on 14 May 2011, entering for Dennis Daube in a game vs. 1. FSV Mainz 05. After spending the 2011–12 season mostly in the reserve team, Filipović became a free agent, signing for HNK Cibalia in the Prva HNL in late 2012.

On 24 June 2016, Filipović signed a three-year deal with FK Austria Wien.[3] During his time in Austria, he was one of the most important members of the squad at achieving the 2nd place in the Austrian Bundesliga and playing all 6 games in the groups of UEFA Europa League.

On 18 August 2017, he signed a three-year deal with Konyaspor.[4]

International career

Filipović, who holds both Croatian and German nationality, was called up in early 2011 to the Croatia national under-21 football team by its selector at that time, Ivo Šušak. However, he did not answer the call, and it is alleged that the information about the call-up was withheld from him by his club.[5]
