Lazar Marković (Serbian Cyrillic: Лазар Марковић; born 2 March 1994 in Čačak) is a Serbian footballer who plays for FK Partizan.

His older brother Filip is also a footballer, currently playing for Teleoptik.[2]

Club career

Marković joined Partizan as a 12-year-old trainee in 2006.[2] On 29 May 2011, Marković earned a promotion to the first team ahead of the final round of the 2010–11 SuperLiga, which Partizan played against Sloboda Užice. He was given the number 50 shirt. Marković was used as a second-half substitute for Joseph Kizito in his team's 2–1 win.[3]

On 11 July 2011, together with Nikola Ninković, Marković signed his first professional contract with Partizan, on a five-year deal.[4][5] Marković made his first appearance of the 2011–12 season in Partizan's opener against Shkëndija, in the qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League, playing the last three minutes of the match.[6] He scored his first senior goal in a league match versus Novi Pazar, on 13 August 2011.[7]

Marković's fantastic performances throughout the course of the season saw him awarded Partizan's Player of the Year award.[8]

In his first full senior season, Marković made 26 league appearances and scored six goals. Despite the fact that he did not score any goals in the second half of the championship, Marković earned 2011–12 SuperLiga Team of the Year selection.[9]

International career

In October 2009, Marković made his Serbia under-17 debut in the qualification round for the 2010 UEFA European Championship. In May 2011, he was part of the same team at the 2011 UEFA European Championship, which the country hosted.

Marković skipped the national under-19 selection and was immediately invited to the Serbian under-21 team for their qualification matches for the 2013 UEFA European Championship.[10] He made his debut against Denmark on 11 October 2011.

On 24 February 2012, Marković was called up to the Serbian senior team for their friendly fixtures against Armenia and Cyprus.[11] He debuted as a starter against Armenia on 28 February 2012, three days before his 18th birthday.[12]
