Club career

Inđija

Born in Belgrade,[3] Lemajić made his debut for Inđija, on away match versus Zemun in last fixture match of the 2009–10 Serbian First League, played 6 June 2010 against Zemun.[4] He played his Serbian SuperLiga match in the 2010–11 season, against Vojvodina, played on 20 November 2010.[5] He also played 3 more matches for the season. After the club relegated in the First League for the next season again, Lemajić collected 21 league and 2 cup matches, scoring 4 goals in both competitions. He was related with Grasshopper,[6] and was on trial with another club in Switzerland, FC Aarau. Although he also was scouted by Italian club Parma,[7] Lemajić stayed in Inđija. As like as the previous season, he played 21 matches in the 2012–13 Serbian First League season and scored 3 goals, but also played just one cup match for the season, without goals.[8] During the 2013–14 season, Lemajić appeared on 27 league matches, scoring 9 goals. That score promoted him to the best team scorer and one of the most important players for surviving the club in the Serbian First League.[9][10] Lemajić also started the 2014–15 season as the first team captain. He scored both goals in opening match for 2–0 home victory against Sloboda Užice.[11][12] During the first half-season, he scored 5 goals on 10 matches, missing some period because of injury.[8] After he spent the whole 2015 with Napredak, Lemajić returned in his home club at the beginning of 2016 as a loaned player until the end of 2015–16 Serbian First League season.[13] He also extended his loan in summer 2016[14] for a six months, and stayed with Inđija until the end of 2016.[8] In the winter break off-season, Lemajić rejoined the club as a single-player.[15]

Napredak Kruševac

Lemajić joined Napredak Kruševac at the beginning of 2015.[16] During the first year he spent with club, Lemajić was mostly used as a back-up player. During the second half of 2014–15 season, he scored 2 goals on 13 league matches and also appeared in both play-off, after which Napredak relegated in the Serbian First League.[8] For the rest of a year, Lemajić scored 1 First League goal on 11 caps. He also played 2 cup matches, against Moravac Mrštane when he scored 2 goals and was nominated for the man of the match,[17] and Radnički Niš.[18] In the winter break off-season, Lemajić was loaned to Inđija.[13] He returned from loan in summer 2016 and started the 2016–17 Serbian SuperLiga season with Napredak,[19] but later moved on new six-month loan to Inđija.[20] In January 2017, Lemajić terminated the contract and left the club.[21]

Riga

On 25 June 2017, Lemajić signed for Latvian club Riga.[22] Lemajić became the top scorer of the 2018 Latvian Higher League, scoring 15 goals in 24 matches. He helped Riga win both - the league and the Latvian Cup - for the first time in the history of the club.
