Dragan Isailović (Serbian Cyrillic: Драган Исаиловић; born 12 January 1976) is a Serbian former professional footballer who played as a striker. He is best remembered for his performances in his one season with Partizan, securing him a transfer to La Liga side Valladolid in 1998. However, Isailović failed to make an impact in Spain, before going on to play for numerous clubs in Portugal, Cyprus, and Bulgaria.
Club career[]
After spending two seasons at Zemun, Isailović moved to Partizan in the summer of 1997. He soon became a fan favorite after scoring the winning goal in a 1–0 home win over Croatia Zagreb in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League first qualifying round. However, they were eliminated after a 0–5 loss in the return leg. Isailović finished the 1997–98 season as the team's top scorer across all competitions, helping them win the national cup.
Between 1998 and 2001, Isailović was under contract with Spanish club Valladolid, but made just 13 appearances in La Liga over the course of three seasons.[1] He subsequently moved to Segunda División side Burgos, helping them avoid relegation in his debut season. However, the club was expelled from the league due to administrative problems.
International career[]
Isailović represented FR Yugoslavia at under-21 level, scoring four goals in five appearances during the team's unsuccessful qualification campaign for the 1998 UEFA Under-21 Championship.
Personal life[]
His son, Aleksandar, is also a footballer.[2]
