For a big part of his career, Alihodžić played for hometown club Željezničar, with whom he won three Bosnian Premier League titles, three Bosnian Cup's and three Bosnian Supercup's.[1] He also had brief spells with Rapid Wien and Favoritner AC in Austria, Antalyaspor in the Turkish Süper Lig and Mura in Slovenia.[2][3]

Managerial and administrative career

After Edis Mulalić was sacked as manager, Alihodžić, who was the sporting director of Željezničar at the time, on 7 May 2016, took over as the caretaker manager of the club until a new permanent manager was to be named.[5] He led the team in one game, a 1–1 draw against Slavija Sarajevo in the last round of the 2015–16 Bosnian Premier League season.[6]

On 12 July 2017, Alihodžić became the director of the youth academy of Željezničar.[7] He worked as director until July 2022, when he was replaced by Edin Ćurić.[8]

On 1 November 2023, Alihodžić was named as Željezničar's caretaker manager.[9] He led the side to a league victory against Sloga Meridian on 4 November.[10]

Bosnia and Herzegovina U21

On 6 March 2020, after Slobodan Starčević became the new head coach of the Bosnia and Herzegovina U21 national team, it was announced that Alihodžić, alongside Mario Ivanković, had been named as the new assistant coaches of Starčević.[11]
