Having previously played for AB, Brøndby and Randers at youth level, Rajović signed for B.93 in September 2018 following a trial spell at the club. He transferred to HB Køge on a contract until the end of the season in January 2019, but he was released when his contract expired at the end of the season, having made a single league appearance for the club.

Rajović signed for Næstved in January 2021. Having scored 12 goals in his opening 17 matches of the 2021–22 season, he signed a contract extension with the club in October 2021.

In December 2022, it was rumoured that there was transfer interest in Rajović from multiple clubs in the Danish Superliga and Allsvenskan, including IFK Göteborg. Having amassed 30 goals in 58 games for Næstved, Rajović signed for Allsvenskan club Kalmar FF on a three-and-a-half-year deal on 9 December 2022. The fee received for Rajović was a new club record for Næstved according to their sporting director Peter Dinesen. His first four appearances for Kalmar came in the Svenska Cupen, in which he scored five goals.

On 25 August 2023, Rajović signed for EFL Championship club Watford on a five-year contract for an undisclosed fee, reported to be around £1 million.
