Club career

Stanković was promoted to the senior squad of third tier side Horn in 2010 and joined Grödig in 2013. He moved to Austrian powerhouse Red Bull Salzburg in 2015 with great success.[3]

AEK Athens

On 31 May 2021, AEK Athens reached an agreement with Red Bull Salzburg for the purchase of the Austrian goalkeeper.[4] The deal includes a €1,100,000 fee for Salzburg, whereas Stanković will put pen to paper to a four-year contract, receiving €700,000 per year.[5] The following day, AEK officially announced the signing of Stanković, who expressed his delight for joining the club and ambition to win titles.[6] Cican Stankovic played the first 6 games of the 2022/23 season, but would later on lose his starting position to Athanasiadis after a minor illness before the game vs Aris Thessaloniki. Despite that, AEK Athens won the Greek Superleague and the Greek Cup and Cican Stankovic played in all 8 Greek cup games, keeping 6 clean sheets and having a great performance in the final vs Paok. Cican Stankovic played in both games vs Dinamo Zagreb and AEK progressed to the Champions League play off round with an aggregate score of 4-3. During the 23/24 season Stankovic participated in the group stages of the Europa league. He had two very good games against Brighton in Amex Stadium and Ajax in Opap Arena, but AEK finished 4th in the group stages.

International career

Stanković made his debut for Austria national football team on 6 September 2019 in a 2020 Euro qualifier against Latvia, as a starter.[7][8]
