Managerial career
In 2010 Zekić was appointed manager of the local football club in Zagreb, Maksimir, which he coached until 2013. One year later he went to Moldova, where he coached Sheriff-2 Tiraspol in 2014, after which he became Sheriff Tiraspol manager. He won the double with Sheriff in the 2014–15 season, winning the Divizia Naţională and the national cup.
On 1 September 2015, Zekić was named as manager of Osijek in the Croatian Prva HNL, signing a three-year contract until June 2018.[2] In the 2016–17 season, Osijek finished in the fourth position, being promoted to the 2017–18 UEFA Europa League qualifying rounds. Osijek drew Santa Coloma, Luzern and PSV Eindhoven. Osijek beat PSV with 2–0 on aggregate (0–1, 1–0), being promoted to the play-off round, where the club lost to Austria Wien on away goals. On 29 March 2019, following the poor performance of the club in the league, Zekić parted ways with Osijek.[3]
On 30 April 2019, Zekić came back to Sheriff, becoming the club's new manager.[4]
In 2021 he was appointed manager of Nemzeti Bajnokság I club Diósgyőri VTK.[5] Zekić became the manager when Diósgyőr was at the bottom of the league. Surprisingly, Diósgyőr could beat both Ferencvárosi TC and Fehérvár FC away.
On 31 August 2021, Zekić came back to Croatian top division football, signing as the new head coach of Slaven Belupo.[6]
