List of foreign football players in Serbia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of foreign players that play or have played in the top league in football clubs from the territory of Serbia.

In this list are included the foreign players that:

  • Play or have played in the Serbian SuperLiga (from 2006 until nowadays), and in the clubs from the territory of Serbia in the First League of Serbia and Montenegro (including FR Yugoslavia, from 1992 until 2006) and in the Yugoslav First League (from 1923 until 1992).
  • Have been part of the club roster in the league.
  • Have not been capped for the Serbian national team or the Yugoslav national team, except the ones that have been capped for other national teams, as well.
  • Have been born in Serbia and capped by a foreign national team. This includes players that have dual citizenship.
  • In this list are only indicated the top-level clubs. If a player has also played in some lower-level club in Serbia, those clubs are excluded, just as all the foreign players that have only played in lower leagues in Serbia.

Notes:

  • The players that played in clubs from Kosovo are only included if they played in a top league club within the Yugoslav or Serbian football league system.
  • The players from the countries that once made part of Yugoslavia (Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro and Slovenia) have inclusion criteriums indicated in each section.
  • The years correspond to seasons, not calendar years, and represent the seasons that the player represented the club, not necessarily being all in the top league, but at least one. If only one year is indicated in parentheses, it means that the player has played only that half of season.
  • Players in bold are players that have at least one cap for their national team.
  • Teams in bold are the current team of that player.
