Aničić started his career at boyhood club Zrinjski Mostar. He played there for 7 seasons, making his debut at the age of 18.

On 5 February 2014, Aničić signed for Kazakhstani side Astana.[2]

International

Aničić appeared 18 times for Bosnia and Herzegovina under-21, making him one of the most capped players at that level of Bosnian football.

Aničić received first senior call-up in September 2015, for the games against Belgium and Andorra,[3] being reunited with his old teammate from Zrinjski, Toni Šunjić, but did not appear in any of the games.
