Dragoljub Kostić (; born 15 May 1950) is a Serbian former football manager and player.[1]
Kostić started out at his hometown club Priština, competing in the Yugoslav Second League. He was transferred to newly promoted Yugoslav First League side Napredak Kruševac in 1976. With 17 goals in the 1979–80 season, Kostić was the Yugoslav First League joint top scorer, alongside Safet Sušić,[2] leading his team to a highest-ever fourth-place finish and a spot in European competitions for the first time in club history. He subsequently traveled to France and played for Paris Saint-Germain at the 1980 Tournoi de Paris,[3] before returning to Kruševac. In the final years of his playing career, Kostić spent multiple seasons with Jedinstvo Paraćin, playing in the lower leagues.[4]
After hanging up his boots, Kostić briefly served as manager of Napredak Kruševac on two occasions.
