Born in Vinkovci, Turčin spent his youth years with several hometown clubs, mainly HNK Cibalia. He made his professional debut for Cibalia on 28 February 2015 (age 17), coming in as a substitute in Matchday 19 of the 2014–15 Croatian Second Football League.

In October 2015, he signed a contract with HNK Rijeka, which ties him with the club until June 2019.[1] Rijeka loaned Turčin back to Cibalia until the end of the 2015–16 season. In July 2017, Turčin was sent on a season-long loan to NK Rudeš. He made his Croatian First Football League debut for Rudeš on 16 July 2017 against NK Osijek.[2]

In June 2018, he was sent on another season-long loan, this time to Premier League of Bosnia and Herzegovina club NK Široki Brijeg.[3] He made his debut for Široki Brijeg on 22 July 2018, in a 1–0 home win against league newcomers FK Tuzla City.[4]

After Široki Brijeg, Turčin was again sent to a season-long loan, this time newly promoted Prva HNL club NK Varaždin.[5]

Turčin scored on his official debut for Rijeka on 7 October 2020 in a cup tie against Dilj.[6]
