Club career

Born in Smederevo, Radosavljević came through the youth ranks at his hometown club Sartid Smederevo, before breaking into the first team in 2000. He immediately became an irreplaceable part of the team on the left side of the pitch. His impressive displays caught the attention of numerous domestic and foreign clubs, including bids from Ajax and Dynamo Kyiv, but the transfer never went through.[1] In total, Radosavljević played six seasons for the club, making 124 league appearances and scoring 10 goals. He also represented the club in UEFA competitions, making 14 appearances while scoring once.

In June 2006, Radosavljević signed a four-year contract with Partizan.[2] He spent six months at the club, before being loaned to Bežanija in February 2007.[3] In the following summer, Radosavljević was sent on a season-long loan to his parent club Smederevo.

Between 2008 and 2011, Radosavljević went on to play for Banat Zrenjanin, Sevojno and Sloboda Užice, but without notable achievements.

After spending one season with Cypriot club Aris Limassol, Radosavljević moved back to his homeland and signed with Radnički Kragujevac in July 2012. He stayed there for only six months, before again returning to Smederevo.

International career

Radosavljević represented FR Yugoslavia at Under-18 and Under-21 level. He also played for the national B team in a friendly match against the Czech Republic national under-21 team in September 2002.
