36-year old Ristanovic played for Partizan, Lovcen and Vojvodina prior to deciding to try himself abroad. He spent some time in three of the strongest handball leagues in Europe playing for Teucro, Ademar Leon and San Antonio in Spain, French Chambery and German Balingen. He also played for Qatari Al-Ahli and Israeli Maccabi.
