Club Career

Napredak Krusevac

In June 2015, his contract with Benfica expired. However, in the winter break of the 2015–16 season, along with Bohdan Sichkaruk, he joined FK Napredak Krusevac who sought to confirm their second-level title and return to top-flight status. This endeavor left Sekidika mostly off the field. The coach chose to stick with the starting eleven that was giving him good results. Sekidika played the 6 last rounds of the 2015–16 Serbian First League season, scoring in all but one and helped them to a dominant finish as champion and gain promotion to the Serbian top-flight, the SuperLiga.

Inconsistencies at management positions and an uncertain starting line-up, left Napredak end 2016–17 Serbian SuperLiga season in 6th place. Sekidika failed to score that season. After a weak start under Nenad Sakic, in September brought in Milorad Kosanovic who made Sekidika a regular in the line up. Napredak finished the season in 7th. Sekidika appeared in 28 games, racking up 3 goals.

In July 2018, Napredak participated in a summer tournament in Portugal where it played against S.L. Benfica. Napredak lost 3–0 in a game played on July 10. Portuguese media put the focus on Sekidika as a former Benfica player and how he had played against several former teammates. Kosanovic convinced the board to sell Sekidika and replace him with domestic players he had coached in previous clubs.
