Following his return with Shrewbury Town came to an end, Atajić returned to Celtic and made several appearances in friendly matches, but was released in September 2014 after making four appearances in the league.[10][11]

In February 2015, he signed one-year deal with SJK with an option to prolong for following year.[12]
