In the following season he played for the league rivals in Menorca before returning to Belgrade for the 2008/09 season, this time to Red Star, who were coached by Svetislav Pešić that season. With a Red Star he was runner-up in both championship and cup in 2009 behind local competitor KK Partizan Belgrade .

For the 2009/10 season Marinović returned to the ACB league in Spain and was ULEB Eurocup winner in the final against Alba Berlin in 2010 with Power Electronics from Valencia . The defeated final opponent with the Montenegrin coach Luka Pavićević finally steered him to Berlin for the following season , where he played with Tadija Dragićević , who was also from Čačak . After a moderate season, Pavićević was dismissed and under his successor Muli Katzurin Marinovic was hardly used, so that he moved to the Russian basketball league. With his new club Krasnye Krylja from Samara as well as with BK Jenissei from Krasnoyarsk in the following season 2011/12 he could not celebrate any particular successes in the Russian PBL and the supranational VTB United League .

In the 2012/13 season Marinović then played in Bulgaria , where he reached both the national runner-up and the runner-up in the Balkan League (BIBL) with Levski Sofia .

In the 2013/14 season Marinović returned to his Serbian homeland, where he played for KK Radnički from Kragujevac . In the intermediate round of the Eurocup 2013/14 Marinović failed with Radnički, among other things, after two defeats against his old club Alba Berlin. After a rather moderate performance in the ABA league they reached the semi-final series in the national championship, in which they were eliminated against series champion KK Partizan. For the 2014/15 season Marinović returned to Levski in the Bulgarian capital Sofia , who will compete in the ABA league for the first time after winning a national double and winning the BIBL title.
