Slobodan Simović

Slobodan Simović captains Radnički 1923 Kragujevac from centre-back, a role he has held since arriving on a free transfer in July 2023. He has made 81 appearances for the club and scored six goals, and in the 2025–2026 season alone he has started 19 of his 21 outings, adding a goal, three yellow cards and a red.

The Čačak-born defender built his career almost entirely in Eastern Europe. He left Proleter Novi Sad for Spartak Subotica in 2009, then in February 2012 signed a three-year contract with Dinamo Minsk in Belarus, where he became team captain. He was named to the Belarusian Premier League's Team of the Year in 2013 and helped Dinamo to a silver medal in 2014 and bronze finishes in 2012 and 2013.

A move to Slovan Bratislava followed in January 2015, bringing a Slovak Super Liga silver medal in 2015–16 and bronze the season before. Spells at Hapoel Kfar Sava in Israel and Aktobe in Kazakhstan came next, before he returned to Belarus in February 2018 to join BATE Borisov. Although not a regular starter there, he was part of the squad that won the 2018 Belarusian Premier League title and featured in UEFA Europa League matches against Arsenal, Fehérvár and Rosenborg.

From January 2020 he spent three years at Kisvárda in Hungary, making 41 appearances and scoring three goals, before a brief stop at Kolubara in the Serbian SuperLiga in early 2023 preceded his move to Radnički 1923 Kragujevac. He has no senior caps for the Serbia national team.
