The Greatest Serbian Footballers of all-time

No.2 Siniša Mihajlovic

There aren't many players who throughout their career find themselves being played as a left-winger, an attacking midfielder, a defensive midfielder, a left-back, and then a centre back. And there aren't many players who could hit a dead-ball as well as Siniša Mihajlovic. He might have courted controversy several times during his playing career, but one thing that everyone can agree on is that he had a wand of a left foot. Not only was it put to good use spraying glorious passes around the pitch, but when it got the sniff of a chance from a dead-ball situation then it usually meant trouble for the opposition.

With 28 goals scored from free-kicks during his fourteen seasons playing in Italy, Mihajlovic holds the record for the most free-kicks scored in Serie A. He is also one of only two players, the other being Giuseppe Signori, to have scored a hat-trick of free-kicks in one match, his three goals helping Lazio beat Sampdoria 5:2 on the 13th of December, 1998.

No.1 Dragan Stojkovic

There are some players from the world of football who, despite suffering from serious injuries during their careers, are still renowned for their ability. Dragan Stojković was one of those players.

A classic midfield playmaker, Dragan Stojković was renowned for his passing ability and vision, a player who could keep things simple, quickly stitching the play together between defence and attack, or use his creativity to pick out a more spectacular pass. His game wasn't just limited to his passing skills though, Stojković was fantastic with the ball at his feet, his dribbling skills and technique allowing him to carry the ball
