Andrija Delibašić (Cyrillic: Андрија Делибашић; born 24 April 1981) is a Montenegrin footballer who plays for Rayo Vallecano in the Spanish second division, as a striker.

Club career

Born in Nikšić, Socialist Republic of Montenegro, Socialist Federative Republic of Yugoslavia, Delibašić started his professional career at FK Partizan, where he played for three-and-a-half seasons. In January 2004 he transferred to RCD Mallorca, never establishing himself in the first team (his best output being his first season, with four goals in 17 matches). In early 2005 he started a spell with S.L. Benfica[1] that proved to be short and unsuccessful as he saw only a few minutes of action.

In 2005–06, Delibašić was loaned again, still to a Portuguese first division outfit, Sporting de Braga.[2] In June, he had married his childhood love Milica. The following season, two more loan spells: starting off at AEK Athens FC, in January 2007, he was released and returned to Portugal, appearing for lowly S.C. Beira-Mar. His first match was against U.D. Leiria on 4 February.[3]

In the 2007 pre-season, Delibašić came back to Mallorca and played some inspired football with six goals in two matches. However, that was not enough to remain with the team as they loaned him out again - this time to Real Sociedad of the Spanish second division.[4] On August 5, 2008, he was released by Real Sociedad, joining Hércules CF on a free transfer, and penning a two-year contract. In 2010 after his contract had expired with Hércules CF, he decided to join Rayo Vallecano with whom he plays with up until now.

International career

Delibašić played for the Serbia-Montenegro U21 team that finished runners-up at the 2004 European Football Championship in Germany.[5] A couple of months later he was also part of the Olympic team that exited in the first round.[6]

After a dramatic loss of form dropped him from international play, his chances for a national team callup increased in mid-2006 as Montenegro separated from Serbia and became an independent country, with Delibašić now eligible to play for the newly formed national team due to his birthplace. However, even before Montenegro's inaugural match (24 March 2007) callup was announced, Delibašić voiced his dissatisfaction in the press about not being contacted by Montenegrin football officials at all and then said that he would never play for the national team in the future, if he was not included on the list of inaugural callups.[7]

In September 2009, Delibašić was summoned for Montenegro's match with Bulgaria, but did not play in the 1–4 defeat on the 5th. He finally made his debut on 10 October, scoring the 2–1 winner against Georgia[8]; both matches were 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
