With seven goals in the 2013–14 Serbian SuperLiga, Stojiljković was one of the most deserving for the team's success, finishing in fifth place in the competition, eventually securing them a spot in the 2014–15 UEFA Europa League. He scored two goals in the qualifying phase, including the winning goal against SV Grödig.

Stojiljković scored his first goals as an Arsenalista on 21 September, a brace in a 5–1 win over Marítimo also at the Estádio Municipal de Braga. 

In September 2017, Stojiljković moved on loan to the Turkish side Kayserispor. After the end of 2017–18 campaign, he returned to Serbia in June 2018, joining Red Star Belgrade on a one-year loan deal.
