Slavoljub "Sava" Paunović (Serbian Cyrillic: Славољуб Сава Пауновић; born 1 January 1947) is a former Yugoslav and Serbian football manager and player.

Playing career

[edit]

Paunović started out at Radnički Kragujevac, helping the club win promotion to the Yugoslav First League on two occasions, in 1969 and 1974. He later played for Partizan in the 1976–77 season.[1]

In 1977, Paunović moved abroad to Turkey, spending two seasons with Beşiktaş. He amassed 55 league appearances and scored 22 goals.[2] In 1979, the Turkish Football Federation imposed a ban on foreign players in the league, causing Paunović to return to Yugoslavia and finish his career with Radnički Kragujevac.[3]
