Club career
Inđija
Born in Belgrade,[4] 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.[5] He played his Serbian SuperLiga match in the 2010–11 season, against Vojvodina, played on 20 November 2010.[6] He also played three more matches for the season. After the club relegated in the Serbian First League for the next season again, Lemajić collected 21 league and two cup matches, scoring four goals in both competitions. He was linked with Grasshoppers,[7] and was on trial with another club in Switzerland, FC Aarau. Although he also was scouted by Italian club Parma,[8] Lemajić stayed in Inđija. As like as the previous season, he played 21 matches in the 2012–13 Serbian First League season and scored three goals, but also played just one cup match for the season, without goals.[9] 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.[10][11] 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.[12][13] During the first half-season, he scored five goals on 10 matches, missing some period because of injury.[9] After he spent the whole 2015 with Napredak Kruševac, 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.[14] He also extended his loan in summer 2016[15] for a six months, and stayed with Inđija until the end of 2016.[9] In the winter break off-season, Lemajić rejoined the club as a single-player.[16]
Napredak Kruševac
Lemajić joined Napredak Kruševac at the beginning of 2015.[17] 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 two goals on 13 league matches and also appeared in both play-off, after which Napredak relegated in the Serbian First League.[9] For the rest of a year, Lemajić scored one Serbian First League goal on 11 caps. He also played two cup matches, against Moravac Mrštane when he scored two goals and was nominated for the man of the match,[18] and Radnički Niš.[19] In the winter break off-season, Lemajić was loaned to Inđija.[14] He returned from loan in summer 2016 and started the 2016–17 Serbian SuperLiga season with Napredak,[20] but later moved on new six-month loan to Inđija.[21] In January 2017, Lemajić terminated the contract and left the club.[22]
Riga
