Aleksandar Rodić (Serbian Cyrillic: Александар Родић, pronounced [aleksǎːndar rǒːditɕ, alěksaːn-];[1][2] born 26 December 1979) is a Slovenian retired footballer.

Club career[edit]

At the beginning of his career Rodić played in Serbia. He made 3 appearances for FK Proleter Zrenjanin in the 1999–2000 First League of FR Yugoslavia.[3]

On transfer deadline day in January 2005, Rodić signed for English club Portsmouth,[4] making his debut as an 81st-minute substitute for Patrik Berger in a 2–1 victory over Middlesbrough.[5] However, he failed to hold down a regular place in the team and the following season (2005–06) he was loaned to Turkish club Kayserispor.
