Dejan Vukićević (; born 27 April 1968) is a Montenegrin football manager and former player.

Playing career

Vukićević started out at his hometown side Budućnost Titograd, making his senior debut in the 1987–88 season. He spent five years at the club, before switching to Mogren in 1992.[1] The following year, Vukićević moved abroad to Cyprus to play for Pezoporikos. He subsequently returned to Yugoslavia and stayed for one and a half years with Radnički Beograd,[2] before joining Partizan in the 1996 winter transfer window. With the Crno-beli, Vukićević won back-to-back championships in 1996 and 1997.[3] He then moved to Spain and signed with Sevilla in the 1998 winter transfer window. Before retiring from the game, Vukićević also played for Recreativo in the 1999–2000 Segunda División.

Managerial career

After hanging up his boots, Vukićević started his managerial career at Zeta in the summer of 2003.[4] He spent the next four years at the club, winning the 2006–07 Montenegrin First League. Shortly after, Vukićević was appointed manager of Mogren. He led the side in the following three seasons, winning one Montenegrin First League and one Montenegrin Cup title.

On 15 August 2011, Vukićević was appointed manager of Vojvodina.[5] He resigned from the position on 12 April 2012 after the club lost to Borac Čačak in the 2011–12 Serbian Cup semi-final.[6]

Later on, Vukićević was manager of Dacia Chișinău, Ventspils, Feronikeli, and Laçi (twice).
