Perica Ognjenović ( Serbian Перица Огњеновић, born February 24, 1977 in Smederevska Palanka , SR Serbia , SFR Yugoslavia ) is a former Serbian football player .

Club career

Perica Ognjenović played for Mladost Goša in his youth. At the age of 17, the top Serbian club Red Star Belgrade signed him as one of the most promising players in his country. In his first season he won the championship and the cup in what was then the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia with his new club . The striker should repeat the cup win with Belgrade in the next two years. Word of his good performances got around all over Europe and so Ognjenović moved to the top club Real Madrid during the winter break of the 1998/99 season . But the young Serb could not prevail against the great competition at the Royal and was dismissed after the 2000/01 season. Until then, he had only played twelve league games and scored one goal for the Madrilenians. After six months without a club, 1. FC Kaiserslautern brought him into the first German Bundesliga. But Ognjenović could not assert himself even with the Palatine and left the club after six months. This was followed by another six months without a club, before the striker hired in January 2003 at the Chinese club Dalian Shide , who was trained at the time by his compatriot Milorad Kosanović , who had already trained him at Red Star Belgrade.

After six months in China, the Serb moved to the Ukrainian record champions Dynamo Kiev . Although he was able to celebrate winning the championship with the club during his season, he was only marginally involved in this success due to a lack of appearances. Again Ognjenović was half a year without a club before he went to the French club SCO Angers in early 2005 . But he was only supposed to stay with the French for six months and then be out of a club for the fourth time in his career. After a year with the Malaysian top club Selangor FA , the striker went to the Greek first division club Ergotelis in early 2007 . There he played until the end of 2008. By the end of the 2009 season, Ognjenović played in the second Greek division at Kallithea FC before returning to his homeland and moving to FK Jagodina . In 2011 he ended his football career.

National team

During his good performance early in his career, Perica Ognjenović was also appointed to the Yugoslav national soccer team. He was a member of the squad at the 1998 World Cup in France, where his team failed in the round of 16 against the Dutch team. Ognjenović was substituted on in all three group matches (also against Germany).
