A forward, Djuricin began his career with SV Donau in 1999, before have alternate spells with Rapid Wien and Austria Wien.[2] After a short spell with FC Stadlau in 2008, he moved to Germany to enter the youth academy at Bundesliga club Hertha BSC.[2] During the 2009–10 season, Hertha's U19 team reached the final of the DFB Youth Cup, but despite Djuricin's equaliser, Hertha lost the match 2–1 to 1899 Hoffenheim.[3] During the 2010–11 pre-season, Djuricin was called up to the first team's training camp in his native Austria.[4] Coach Markus Babbel was impressed by his performance during the camp and called in him up for Hertha's remaining pre-season friendlies.[4]

Breakthrough and Jahn Regensburg loan

[edit]

Djuricin made his debut for Hertha's reserve team in a 2–2 Regionalliga Nord draw with Hallescher FC on 6 August 2010.[5] Following injuries to Patrick Ebert, Raffael and Daniel Beichler, Djuricin received his maiden first team call up on the opening day of the 2010–11 2. Bundesliga season against Rot-Weiß Oberhausen.[6] He made his debut after just 18 minutes as a substitute for Rob Friend.[6] Djuricin had a dream debut, scoring two second-half goals to help Hertha to a 3–2 win.[6] He signed a new four-year contract shortly after the match.[7] Djuricin went on to make 9 appearances during a successful 2010–11 season for Hertha, which saw the club promoted back to the Bundesliga at the first time of asking.[1]

Djuricin spent the majority of the 2011–12 Bundesliga season with the reserves, scoring 9 goals in 16 appearances.[1] He made two first team substitute appearances in early 2012 and was on the bench for both of Hertha's relegation playoff matches, which were lost to Fortuna Düsseldorf and consigned the club to relegation straight back to the 2. Bundesliga.[1] During the 2012 off-season, new Hertha manager Jos Luhukay announced that Djuricin was not in his first team plans.[8]

On 9 August 2012, Djuricin joined 2. Bundesliga club Jahn Regensburg on loan for the duration of the 2012–13 season.[9] He missed two months of the campaign with a broken sesamoid in his foot and made 17 appearances and scored three goals in a dire season for the Jahn,[10][11] with a bottom-place finish consigning the club to relegation to the 3. Liga.[1]

After four appearances early in the 2015–16 season,[1] Djuricin moved to England to sign for Championship club Brentford on loan until the end of the 2015–16 season.[15] He scored within 29 minutes of his debut in a 1–1 draw with against Leeds United on 12 September and made it two goals in three games with the winner versus Preston North End one week later.[16] He came into form again in late October, scoring in wins over Wolverhampton Wanderers and Queens Park Rangers,[16] the latter match being Brentford's first win over their West London rivals for fifty years.[17] An ankle ligament injury suffered early in a 1–1 draw with Blackburn Rovers on 7 November kept Djuricin out of the team for two months.[1][18] He returned to the bench in mid-January 2016 and broke back into the starting lineup in late February,[1] but was sidelined due to illness in March.[19] Djuricin made just two further appearances and finished the season with 4 goals from 23 appearances.[16][20]
