Club career

Vranješ has played for FK Borac Banja Luka in the Bosnian Premier League before moving to Red Star Belgrade in Serbia. After struggling to establish himself in the first team of Red Star, he first went on loan to Napredak Kruševac and then to Sheriff from Moldova for the 2010–11 season.

After he returned to the pitch, he signed a contract with Turkish side Elazığspor. Even though he played very well for them, it was not enough to help escape the relegation to second level of Turkish league.

On 2 February 2015, he signed for Turkish club Gaziantepspor.[6] On 25 January 2016, his contract was mutually terminated.[7]

On 26 January 2016, he signed for Spanish club Sporting Gijón until the end of season.[8]
