Club Career Highlights
Luka Đorđević has played for many different football clubs throughout his career. He started his journey in Montenegro and has since played in Russia, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Denmark, Saudi Arabia, and Cyprus.
Playing for Zenit
Luka made his first appearance for the Russian club Zenit Saint Petersburg on August 11, 2012. He came into the game as a substitute in the 83rd minute. Zenit won that match against Spartak Moskva with a score of 5–0.
Loan to Twente
In August 2013, Luka went on a loan to Twente, a club in the Netherlands. A loan means a player temporarily plays for another team. He scored his first goal for Twente in a friendly match on January 11, 2014.
Loan to Arsenal Tula
Luka played for Arsenal Tula on loan for two seasons. In October 2018, he helped his team win against Spartak Moscow, which was a big surprise because Spartak was expected to win. A few days later, he scored a very cool goal using a mid-air heel kick, which some people called a "scorpion" goal!
Moving to Lokomotiv Moscow
On August 12, 2019, Luka signed with another Russian club, Lokomotiv Moscow. He played there for a while before his contract ended in June 2021.
Another time at Arsenal Tula
Luka returned to FC Arsenal Tula on loan in October 2020. He stayed with them until the end of the 2020–21 season.

In September 2022, Luka went back to Russia to play for Sochi. He even extended his contract with them in June 2023, but then left the club in January 2024.
New Adventures in Saudi Arabia and Cyprus
In February 2024, Luka signed with Abha in Saudi Arabia. Later that year, in September 2024, he joined his current club, Karmiotissa, in Cyprus.
