Miodrag Ješić (Serbian Cyrillic: Миодраг Јешић; born 30 November 1958) is a Serbian football manager and former footballer.

Football career

Playing

Born on 30 November 1958 in Osečenica, Ješić played for Partizan Belgrade between 1974 and 1985,[1] taking part in 342 matches and scoring 81 goals in all competitions.

For the Yugoslavia national football team, he played in 8 games and scored twice.

Between 1985 and 1989 he represented Altay SK, where he recorded 136 matches and 29 goals, and finished his career at Trabzonspor in 1989-90 with 37 matches and 9 goals in total.

He is immensely disliked amongst the Fenerbahçe supporters because they view him as responsible for an injury suffered by "Şeytan" Rıdvan Dilmen (Rıdvan the Devil) in 1990 during a league match between Fenerbahçe and Trabzonspor. Rıdvan never fully recovered despite undergoing sixteen operations, and eventually had to retire in 1995 at Fenerbahçe after painful years of injuries. Ješić had also accumulated a record number of bookings in his tenure in Turkish Süper Lig. Opponents claimed that he also injured many players in Turkey and gave him the nickname of "Kasap Yeşiç", which means "Ješić the Butcher."

Voted coach no. 1 for season 2004–05 by Bulgarian sport newspaper.
