Jovan Vidovic

Jovan Vidovic (born 6 January 1989) is a Slovenian professional football defender who plays for Chemnitzer FC.

Club Career

Vidovic started his football career at Smartno, but later left the side for Slovan together with Smartno teammate Dalibor Stojanovic at the age of 14. With his new club he became runner-up of Slovenian League, being second only to Maribor. He was given his nickname "Dugi" by his teammates at an early age, due to his extreme size.

In late November 2010 it was announced by Zlatko Zahovic, Maribor's director of football, that Maribor had acquired Vidovic on a permanent move as a result of Sinisa Andjelkovic transfer from Maribor to Palermo during the 2010–11 winter transfer window. Domzale president Stane Orazem has confirmed the deal on the same day. The transfer has been made official on 7 December 2010, when Maribor announced it on their official website. Vidovic has signed a four-year contract with the new club.

In July 2013 Vidovic joined Azerbaijan Premier League side Ravan Baku on a one-year contract with the option of another year.
