Predrag "Pedj" Bojić (born 9 April 1984) is an Australian football (soccer) player who plays for the Central Coast Mariners in the A-League.
Club career
Bojić is of Serbian heritage. Bojić's professional career began at Australian club Parramatta Power in the 2000–01 season, where he played for two years. He went to Sydney Olympic and then moved to Northampton in England the following season on a free transfer after a successful trial.[1]
Northampton Town
Bojić joined the Cobblers at the start of the 2004–05 season, when he became an instant first team player. Thanks to him, Northampton reached the play-off semi-finals, where they were beaten by Southend United. Next season, he and the club had more luck. He made 23 starts and 18 substitute appearances and scored four league goals as the club finished second in the league and won promotion.[2]
In the 2006–07 season, Bojic found the step up to League One easy, making 30 first team appearances. Bojić suffered a hernia injury in January 2007, which kept him out for two to four months and eventually led to the end of his Northampton Town career.
Central Coast Mariners
On 28 July 2008, Bojić was signed to a one year deal with the Mariners after impressing in several trials.[3] After becoming a first team regular and impressing at the Mariners, Bojic signed a two-year contract extension on 9 October 2008.[4]
Personal
Aside from playing professional football, Bojić has his own personal training business.[5] Bojić trains clients in Sydney, before heading to the Central Coast for training. He returns to Sydney after the morning session to train more clients, before heading back for afternoon training. He also trains clients in the Central Coast area.[6] Bojić is of Serbian heritage.
