Suad Gruda (born 27 July 1991) is a former professional footballer who played as a midfielder. Born in Macedonia and raised in Sweden, he represented Montenegro U21 national team internationally.
Gruda was born in Macedonia but his family relocated to Sweden and Luleå the year after his birth.[1] There he spent his youth years at IFK Luleå before moving to Degerfors IF[2] and then Allsvenskan club Gefle IF in 2010 after having spent a year playing first team football with his original club. After leaving Gefle two years later he played for second tier JIPPO in Finland[3] before signing with Nyköpings BIS in March 2013.[4] On 11 August 2013, Gruda left Nyköpings BIS for Umeå FC, but returned to his old club the next season.
In November 2019, he retired from playing, citing persistent knee problems.[5]
Gruda represented the Montenegro national under-21 football team during one game against Andorra in the 2013 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship qualification.[6]
