Club Career

Born in Backo Dobro Polje, a municipality of Titov Vrbas, Vukovic started in Red Star Belgrade's youth academy but lack of first team opportunities prompted a move to Rad in 2006.

On 28 August 2009 it was announced that Vukovic would be loaned to PSV Eindhoven, with the prospect of a permanent signing at the end of the season. Vukovic made his official debut for PSV on 22 October 2009, in the UEFA Europa League match against Copenhagen, coming on as a substitute for Erik Pieters in the 86th minute of the game. On 22 November 2009, Vukovic made his Eredivisie debut in the league game against Heracles Almelo, coming on as a substitute for Erik Pieters in the 77th minute of the game, to only 10 minutes later score his first official goal for PSV with a stunning left-footed long range shot from 21 yards. On 9 April 2010 Vukovic, who was playing for PSV on loan from Rad, has signed a three-year deal with the Dutch club.

On 31 August 2013, he made his return to Serbia and signed a two-year contract with Serbian SuperLiga side Vojvodina. On 7 January 2014 he signed with Super Lig club Konyaspor.

On 13 July 2017, Vukovic signed with Greek club Olympiacos. He made only five appearances with the Reds during the first half of the 2017–18 season and was clearly not in the first-team plans of their Spanish manager, Oscar. On 23 January 2018 Vukovic moved to Italian club Verona until the end of the season. In the summer of 2018, Vukovic returned to Olympiacos and started the season as a first defensive choice for Olympiacos new coach Pedro Martins. On 25 November 2018, he scored with the head his first goal with the club, in the last minute of the game by Kostas Fortounis’ free-kick against rivals Atromitos giving a vital 2–1 away
