Career

Player career

Dejan Stankovic started his career at Roter Stern Belgrade (6 seasons), came to Austria for the first time in autumn 1983 via Olympia Laibach (2 seasons) and NK Maribor to ASK Voitsberg, where he was very successful as a center forward in the 2nd division. In addition to his technical skills, the then 26-year-old striker impressed with his speed. After two seasons he moved to the Lower Austrian football club SC Krems . He was used as a striker for the Lower Austrians . Soon after, he moved to Styria for DSV Leoben , where he was engaged in the first division and, after relegation, in the first division . Due to his experience and age, Stankovic later switched from the position of striker to that of libero and kept this position until the end of his career as an active footballer.

Coaching career

After the end of his playing career, he started a career as a football coach at the Styrian club ASK Voitsberg . In 2005 he finally received the offer from DSV Leoben to take on the vacant coaching position. He reached a midfield position in the first division in two seasons. He also trained his son Marko with the Donawitzers , who became a regular in the team under him.

After a completely botched start to the third season, Stanković was relieved of his work as a coach in November 2007. In spring 2008 he took over the coaching position at FC Waidhofen / Ybbs in the Regionalliga Ost . After the unsuccessful engagement with the Lower Austrians , he was replaced as coach by Heinz Thonhofer .

In early January 2009, Stanković was signed as the successor to Andrzej Lesiak from 1. FC Vöcklabruck for the First League. At the beginning of the 2009/10 season he moved back to DSV Leoben, who had been relegated to the Middle Regional League. On September 9th, 2009, Stanković separated by mutual agreement from DSV Leoben.

After he was looking for a job, he only found a new club in the summer of 2011 with the lower-class FC Trofaiach , which he coached until the summer of 2012. Then he was looking for a club again and found a new club in the Styrian national league club SC Liezen , which he was in charge of from September 15, 2013. After he had to leave this club after less than a year in the summer of 2014, Stanković was hired as a coach from the 2014/15 season by SV Hinterberg, which is also close to his home . He then left the sixth division again in early July 2015 when he was replaced by Alexander Lasselsberger. From summer 2016 he coached ESV Knittelfeld in the Styrian Oberliga Nord (5th league), but was dismissed at the end of October 2016 after the team only ranked ninth in the table. Andreas Feichtner took over the interim management , before Jürgen Saler returned to his old place of work for a few months in the second half of the season . Soon after Stanković took over as coach at the football club from his home, the SC St. Peter / Freienstein with gaming operations in the Minor League North B .
