Early career
Born in Mojkovac, SR Montenegro, SFR Yugoslavia, Simović learned his trade in OFK Igalo. He made his debut in senior-level football with Berane, after which he joined Metalac GM for a brief spell. He subsequently joined Mogren in 2008.

Mogren
In 2008, Simović joined Mogren. At the time of Simović's arrival, Mogren was an ambitious team with coach Branislav "Brano" Milačić and a number of players from the Montenegro national team involving the likes of Radoslav Batak, Ivan Janjušević, Petar Grbić, Marko Ćetković, and Draško Božović.

Dynamo Kyiv
In late February 2012, Simović traveled to Israel to trial with Ukrainian team Dynamo Kyiv. During the trial, Simović played a friendly match for Dynamo against Maccabi Haifa, which Dynamo won 5–0. On 1 March 2012 he signed a three-year contract with Dynamo Kyiv. Dynamo Kyiv paid Mogren approximately €200,000 for Simović's transfer. After signing with Dynamo, he was loaned first to Arsenal Kyiv, and then loaned to Dynamo's B team. During his loans, Simović had a back injury, and after two years he terminated his contract with Dynamo.
