Zoran Pavlović (born 27 June 1976) is a Slovenian footballer who plays for AC Linden.

Club career

Although he was born in Tuzla, Pavlović's family moved to Velenje when he was young. He started his career at Rudar Velenje, making his first appearance in the Slovenian PrvaLiga during the 1994–95 season.[1] Later he successfully played at Dinamo Zagreb, Austria Wien, Vorskla Poltava, Olimpija, Nafta Lendava, and Interblock. For the 2008–2009 season and the first few months following season, he played for and captained Maribor. After a string of poor results and a dispute with fans, he left the club. He later signed on a combined player-sporting director contract with Drava Ptuj but only made three appearances before leaving, allegedly due to a conflict surrounding the sacking of manager Milko Gjurovski whom he had brought to the club only months before. He is well known for his great shot from distance. In January 2012, he signed a contract as a player for Styrian amateur team SV Schwanberg.

International career

Pavlović played 21 matches for the Slovenia and was a participant at the Euro 2000 and the 2002 FIFA World Cup.
