Uroš Đurđević (Serbian Cyrillic: Урош Ђурђевић; born 2 March 1994) is a Serbian professional footballer who plays as a striker for Partizan.

Club career

Đurđević made his senior debut for Rad on 28 August 2011, coming on as a substitute for Luka Milivojević in a 1–2 home league loss to Sloboda Užice. He appeared in a total of seven league games in his debut season, exclusively as a substitute. On 17 November 2012, Đurđević scored his first ever senior goal for Rad, giving his team a 1–0 home league win over Hajduk Kula. He netted a total of nine league goals in the 2012–13 campaign, helping his team finish middle of the table. Despite numerous speculation during the 2013 summer transfer window, Đurđević stayed with the Građevinari until the end of the year.[1]

In January 2014, Đurđević joined Dutch club Vitesse.[2] He made his Eredivisie debut on 7 February 2014, coming on as an 88th-minute substitute for Lucas Piazon in a 0–0 home draw with ADO Den Haag. On 14 August 2015, Đurđević terminated his contract with Vitesse by mutual agreement.[3]

On 18 August 2015, Đurđević was purchased by Italian club Palermo.[4] He marked his Serie A debut with the Rosanero by scoring an 88th-minute equalizer in a 2–2 home draw with Carpi on 13 September 2015.[5] Unfortunately, in his second appearance for Palermo, Đurđević fractured his ankle in a game against Milan at San Siro on 19 September 2015.[6]

On 22 August 2016, Đurđević returned to his homeland and signed with Partizan, on a three-year deal.[7] He made his debut for the club on 27 August 2016, coming on as a substitute for Valeri Bojinov in a 4–0 home win over his former club Rad.[8]

International career

Đurđević represented Serbia at the 2012 UEFA Under-19 Championship, as the team exited the tournament at the group stage. He subsequently led them to the 2013 UEFA Under-19 Championship, scoring a brace against Slovakia in the elite qualifying round. At the final tournament, Đurđević was one of the team's most influential players,[9] scoring the opening goal in the semi-final against Portugal, as they progressed through to the final after penalties.[10] Serbia eventually won the gold medal after defeating France 1–0 in the final.[11]

On 22 March 2013, Đurđević made his debut for Serbia at under-21 level in a 1–2 friendly loss away against the Netherlands U21s. He scored his first goal for the team on 14 August 2013, in a 4–1 home friendly win over the Macedonia under-21 side.[12] Subsequently, Đurđević was a regular member of the team during the UEFA Under-21 Championship 2015 qualifying stage, as Serbia qualified to the final tournament.
