Career
On 28 October 2006, while playing for FK Bežanija, Božović scored an equaliser in a league match against FK Voždovac. On the first, the result was 0–1, he defended a penalty by Miloš Kolaković in the 88th minute, and then in the fourth minute of injury time, after the corner kick, he scored a header for the final 1–1.[1]
In 2007 he joined Serbian giant FK Partizan where he won 3 titles.
In 2010 he joined FK Sloboda Užice.
In 2013, Božović joined Hong Kong First Division side Happy Valley AA. On 5 January 2014, Božović was one of the seven players and coaching staff arrested by the Hong Kong Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) for allegations with match-fixing.[2][3] On 6 January 2014, the homes of Božović and five other Happy Valley players were raided by the ICAC as the officials stepped up their investigation into alleged match-fixing.[4] On 26 March 2014, Božović and other Happy Valley players went to the Hong Kong Labour Department to make claims against Happy Valley AA for unpaid and outstanding wages worth around one hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars.[5]
