Zoran Slišković (born 1 March 1966) is a former Croatian football player, who played as a forward.

Club career

[edit]

Slišković trained on his own, without proper coaching, at the local Faraon Trpanj,[1] before moving on as a teenager to play for a couple of seasons to the nearby Grk Potomje. He claims to have been coached properly only when he came, aged 18, to Neretvanac Opuzen, quickly ascending to the first team.[1] The following season, Slišković joined FK Željezničar Sarajevo in the Yugoslav First League, with coach Ivica Osim giving him green light after a trial.[2][1]

Slišković moved to Greece in July 1992, joining first division side AEK Athens for two seasons.[3] He won 2 championships with AEK helping the team a lot with his performances and his goals, while he was also the top scorer of the Greek Cup in 1994 with 10 goals. On 31 October 1992 he scored a brace helping his team won in the away match against Skoda Xanthi with 3–4.[4] On 6 June 1993 he opened the score at the first minute, in the 3–1 win against Olympiacos.[5] On 22 December 1993 he scored the decider in the 1–2 away victory over OFI.[6] He scored the winner against Iraklis away from home, on 13 March 1994.[7] On 3 April 1994, he also scored the winner in the away match against Edessaikos.[8] In the summer of 1994, the people of AEK, in their effort to strengthen the team for the qualifying games of the UEFA Champions League group stage, did not offer him a contract renewal, in order to free up a foreigner position.[9] Slišković signed with Paniliakos in the second division, where he played for one season.[10] Afterwards he returned to Croatia to play for two season for Croatia Zagreb, before retiring in 1999 at Slaven Belupo.
