Season 2007/2008

Jorgačević got in 2007/2008 the difficult task to replace the club-icon of that time, Frédéric Herpoel, who had been the keeper of KAA Gent during the ten last years. In the first game of the season 2007/2008, which was his first year at KAA Gent, his competitor Alexandre Martinovic started in the goal. But that particular game Martinovic didn't make a good impression and as from the second game until the end of the season Jorgacevic was the keeper of the team. He helped to win many points and got much support from the fans and the team.

Season 2008/2009

As from the start of the season 2008/2009, Jorgačević was, together with superstar Bryan Ruiz, a real principal player in the team. He got such a good performances that he became quickly a public’s favourite in Ghent. He underscored this thrust by stating in a weekly magazine that he wants to become a memorial player in the team of AA Ghent. The season was very successful and Jorgačević signed a contract in Ghent until 2012.

Season 2009/2010

The season 2009/2010 was the best in club history. AA Gent ended on the second spot in the Jupiler Pro League (after successful play-offs) and it won also the Belgian Cup. Jorgačević was once again one of the main players of the team. He formed with the central defensive players Šuler and Wils a strong defence. By concequence his position as first keeper was never in danger. Jorgačević also got the opportunity to play in European competitions, but he couldn’t reach the position of First national keeper of Serbia, as Vladimir Stojković occupies this position. As this keeper got a less period at the end of 2010, Jorgačević made his debut in the Serbian national team at 17. November 2010 and took every ball which threatened his goal.On Agust 10th 2011. He started as a goalkeeper against Russia in a friendly match for his 3rd time in the National team

On 19 May 2011, Bojan resigned a contract of 2 years in Ghent up to 2013, making it seem he was to stay longer at Gent. However, later that year rivals Club Brugge needed a keeper urgently and therefore signed Jorgačević during the season until 2016. [1]
