Dejan Savićević

Nationality: Montenegrin
Date of birth:
15 September 1966
Association president since: 2004

• One of the best players in Montenegrin history, Dejan Savićević started his career at FK Budućnost Podgorica but made his name as FK Crvena zvezda won the 1990/91 European Champion Clubs' Cup; his vision saw the attacking midfielder move on to AC Milan where he scored in the 4-0 1993/94 UEFA Champions League final win against FC Barcelona.

• Having ended his career at FK Austria Wien, the 56-times capped international coached the Serbia and Monetenegro national team from 2001-03, and was elected as president of the Football Association of Montenegro (FSCG) in 2004, with his tenure including Montenegro's admission to FIFA and UEFA as an independent footballing nation in 2007.

• Savićević said: "I will always listen to clubs, players and coaches, but I will demand that they respect the rules and fair play; that will be my priority at domestic level. However, my biggest wish is to see Montenegro at UEFA EURO 2012. It would be the greatest achievement of my footballing career."
