Vladan Milojević (Serbian Cyrillic: Владан Милојевић; born 9 March 1970) is a Serbian professional football manager and former player. He is currently the coach of Serbian Super League team Red Star Belgrade.
Playing career
Born in Aranđelovac, Milojević joined the youth system of Red Star Belgrade in 1986, before making his senior debuts with Bečej. He then spent three seasons with Radnički Beograd (1990–1993), playing together with Darko Tešović and Zdenko Muf. In the summer of 1993, Milojević moved to Greece, alongside Muf, and joined PAS Giannina.[1] He also played for Kalamata, again with Muf, before returning to his homeland and joining his parent club Red Star Belgrade in early 1996. Six months later, Milojević returned to Greece and signed with Apollon Smyrnis. He spent one season at the club, before switching to Panathinaikos and remaining there for the next three years.[2] Subsequently, Milojević spent three seasons at Iraklis (2000–2003). He also played at Akratitos for six months, before spending the final six months of his career at his former club Apollon Smyrnis.
Managerial career
After hanging up his boots, Milojević worked in the youth setups at Iraklis and Red Star Belgrade. He won the national championship with the latter's under-18 team in the 2010–11 season. In June 2011, Milojević was appointed manager of Serbian SuperLiga side Javor Ivanjica, but left the club after three months.[citation needed]
In February 2012, Milojević took charge at Serbian First League club Čukarički.[3] He led them to promotion to the top flight in 2013. Two years later, Milojević won his first trophy as a manager when Čukarički defeated Partizan 1–0 in the 2014–15 Serbian Cup final.[4] He left the club by mutual consent in October 2015.[5]

Red Star Belgrade caused one of the biggest upsets of that UEFA Champions League season by defeating the later winner of the season Liverpool at home with 2–0.[9]
In the 2019–20 season, Milojević again managed to reach the UEFA Champions League group stage after defeating some tough opponents in the likes of København and Young Boys.

On 31 August 2023, Milojević became the manager of another Cypriot club, Apollon Limassol..On December 5, Milojevic resigned as coach due to poor results.
