Nikola Stipić (born 18 December 1937) is a former Serbian footballer.

He started to play for Red Star Belgrade still in the youth teams, debuting for the first team in the 1956/57 season. He had an excellent start becoming known for his speed, great technical skills and dribbling, but his career suddenly came to an end because of a heavy knee injury having only 26 years old.

Afterward he became a journalist of the Balgrade-based daily Večernje novosti.[1]
