As a player, he has played for Inter Zapresic and NK Celje as a left back, retiring at the young age of 26.

After retiring, he enrolled into the Croatian Football Federation coaching academy. At 31 years old, he become one of the youngest ever manager in all the former Yugoslav republic clubs when he took over the job at Bosnian Super League club NK Brotnjo in 2003.[1][2] Later he becomes assistant manager to Robert Rupčić at HNK Rijeka.[3] That season the club played Europa League qualifications in Luxemburg and Ukraine.

He then accepted the job as manager of NK Lokomotiva for the 2011-2012 season,[6] however he was dismissed from the job after 4 months due to poor results of the team.[7] Even then, according to media, Lokomotiva FC played good offensive football.

Tot, a UEFA-certified coach instructor,[8] moved to Malaysia in August 2012 to join Kedah FA, replacing Wan Jamak Wan Hassan.[9] He coached the team until the end of July 2013, choosing not to renew his contract with Kedah.[10]
