Perić, who last played for the Slovenian club RK Celje and played for the Serbian national team, always played as a goalkeeper .

Dejan Perić began playing handball at Dinamo Pančevo before he went to the youth boarding school of the top Serbian club RK Red Star Belgrade at the age of 16 . After winning the Serbian championship with Belgrade, he moved to Atlético Madrid in the Spanish league ASOBAL in 1992 , where he remained unsuccessful and therefore moved to Teucro Pontevedra after two years. When there was no success here either, he moved on to Slovenia in 1995 to join series champion RK Celje . With the men from the Slovenian Styria he had a sense of achievement: 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2003 and 2004 Slovenian champions; 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2004 Slovenian cup winners, as well as winning the EHF Champions League as the highlight in 2004 . During the subsequent sell-off at Celje, Perić was also affected: FC Barcelona signed him. There he was Spanish champion in 2006 and again winner of the EHF Champions League in 2005. In 2006 he moved to MKB Veszprém in Hungary. In 2008 he won the European Cup Winners' Cup and the Hungarian Championship with Veszprém . In 2011 he returned to RK Celje, where he ended his career in 2013.

Perić has played 207 internationals for the Serbian national team and their predecessor teams. At the men's handball world championship in 1999 he won the bronze medal with Serbia-Montenegro as well as at the 1996 European handball championship in Spain. Since his nine years with Celje Pivovarna Laško, Perić has also had a Slovenian passport, but has always remained loyal to Serbia.

He is currently working as an assistant coach for the Serbian national team as well as a goalkeeping coach at training camps for international youth goalkeepers in Croatia.
