Aleksandar Bjelica (born 7 January 1994) is a Serbian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for IJsselmeervogels.

Club career

[edit]

He formerly played for FC Utrecht who loaned him to Sparta Rotterdam. He was released by Utrecht after he was sent back by Sparta when he controversially demanded a place in their starting line-up in a game against NEC.[1] He then moved to PEC Zwolle and later joined Helmond Sport in summer 2015.[2]

He moved abroad to succeed Miloš Kosanović at Belgian side KV Mechelen in January 2016.[3]

On 2 September 2019, he joined Dutch club ADO Den Haag on a season-long loan.[4][5]

On 14 August 2021, he signed with Spartak Subotica for the rest of the year.[6] In May 2023, Bjelica signed with his former childhood club, Quick Boys.[7] In August 2023, the club's manager confirmed that Bjelica was no longer part of the A squad. However, he would not comment on the reason.[8][9]

International career

[edit]

Bjelica has represented Serbia at under-21 level, making two appearances.[10]
