Club career
Ristovski began his career for his hometown club FK Vardar before he signed a 5 year deal with Italian club Parma in January 2010 when he was only 17 but the deal could not become official until he turned 18.
Ristovski joined Serie B club Crotone on loan from Parma on 6 July 2011. After not receiving much playing time, the loan was cancelled in the 2012 winter transfer window before Ristovski was then loaned to Frosinone to close the 2011/12 season. On 5 July 2012, Stefan was again sent on loan by Parma, this time to Serie B side Bari. In January 2015 he was signed by U.S. Latina Calcio in a temporary deal. Before the bankruptcy of Parma, Ristovski was under contract with Parma until 30 June 2019.
In July 2015, Ristovski moved to HNK Rijeka in Croatia on a free transfer. The transfer was facilitated through Rijeka's Italian partner club, Spezia Calcio. In order for Ristovski to remain eligible under Italy's non-EU quota, he was signed by Spezia and then loaned to Rijeka.
International career
Ristovski made his début with the Macedonian national team on 10 August 2011 in an away friendly against Azerbaijan.
