Kurdić started off his senior career at Sarajevo after playing in the youth team of Velež Mostar and Sarajevo before. He made his debut for Sarajevo on 28 July 2018, in a 4–0 home league win against Mladost Doboj Kakanj.[2] He won his first trophy with the club on 15 May 2019, after Sarajevo beat Široki Brijeg in the final and won the 2018–19 Bosnian Cup.[3] Three days after the cup final, on 18 May 2019, Kurdić also won the league title with Sarajevo after the club beat Zvijezda 09 4–0 at home.[4]
He won his second league title with the club on 1 June 2020, though after the 2019–20 Bosnian Premier League season was ended abruptly due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Bosnia and Herzegovina and after which Sarajevo were by default crowned league champions for a second consecutive time.[5]
