Zoran Janković (Serbian Cyrillic: Зоран Јанковић, pronounced [zǒran jǎːŋkoʋitɕ];[2][3] Bulgarian: Зоран Янкович, romanized: Zoran Yankovich; born 8 February 1974) is a football manager and former player. Born in Yugoslavia, he represented Bulgaria as a player.
Club career

During his career, Janković represented FK Borac Čačak, FK Železnik, FK Vojvodina, PFC Litex Lovech, Dalian Shide F.C., Ethnikos Achna FC and FK Inđija. Janković was the highest scoring foreign player during the 2000–01 and 2001–02 A PFG seasons, managing 13 goals in each of them.[4]
He has retired during winter break of 2010-11 season while playing for FK Inđija in the Serbian SuperLiga, becoming their manager.
On 15 September 2017, Janković became coach of the Thailand u-23 national team.[5] He was sacked following Thailand's defeat in 2018 AFC U-23 Championship.
International career
[edit]Janković was capped 30 times for the Bulgarian national team, scoring 2 goals.[6] He made his debut for the national side on 13 February 2002, in a friendly match against Croatia, which ended in a scoreless draw.[7] Janković was also a member of the Bulgarian squad at UEFA Euro 2004 in Portugal. He was initially dropped following Hristo Stoichkov's appointment as manager in July 2004, but was recalled in 2006 and made a number of appearances in the Euro 2008 qualifiers.[8][9][10] Janković is the second most capped non-Bulgarian-born player to appear for the team (after fellow Serbian Predrag Pažin) and is the first out of two to score a goal (the other one who has found the net is Marcelinho).[11]
