Nenad Grozdić (Serbian Cyrillic: Ненад Гроздић; born 3 February 1974) is a Serbian football manager and former player.
After making a name for himself in his homeland at Obilić, Grozdić went on to play abroad for Vitesse and Lens, among others. He also represented FR Yugoslavia internationally, earning 11 caps between 1998 and 2000.
Club career
After playing in the lower leagues of FR Yugoslavia, Grozdić joined First League club Obilić in the 1996 winter transfer window, spending the next three-and-a-half years with the Vitezovi. He was an integral part of the team that won the national championship in the 1997–98 season. In the summer of 1999, Grozdić moved abroad and signed with Dutch club Vitesse. He made 29 Eredivisie appearances in his sole season at the GelreDome, scoring once.[1] In August 2000, Grozdić was transferred to French side Lens for a reported fee of 7.5 million guilder.[2] He finished his career playing in the lower leagues of Austria.[3]
International career
At international level, Grozdić was capped 11 times for FR Yugoslavia,[4] making his national team debut in a 3–1 friendly loss away to Argentina on 25 February 1998. He was named in the preliminary 24-man squad for UEFA Euro 2000 by manager Vujadin Boškov,[5] failing to make the final cut. His last cap came in a 2–1 away friendly win over Northern Ireland on 16 August 2000.[6]
Managerial career
In July 2022, Grozdić was appointed as manager of OFK Beograd. He left the Serbian League Belgrade club by mutual consent in December of that year.
