Antic began his career with Rabotnicki Skopje in his native Macedonia before spending four years in Greece with AEK. He has since played for Crvena Zvezda in Serbia, Lokomotiv Kuban in Russia and Lukoil Academic Sofia in Bulgaria. Among his career accomplishments are two Bulgarian League titles with Lukoil and a Serbian Cup with Crvena Zvezda.
