Football career

Born in Belgrade, Vasiljević started his career with local and national powerhouse FK Partizan, being an important part of the squad that won two national championships and as many Yugoslav Cups. In the 1994 summer he moved to Spain where he remained for the following six years, in representation of CA Osasuna (two spells) and Albacete Balompié.[1]

Vasiljević's only season in La Liga was 1995–96, as he started in 21 of his 22 league appearances for Albacete, who ranked in 20th position and suffered relegation. After leaving the country in 2000, he played with Rot Weiss Ahlen in Germany[2] and FK Obilić, returning later in the decade to Osasuna to work in several capacities (youth coach, co-director of football).[3][4][5]

On 5 January 2017, Vasiljević became Osasuna's third manager of the top flight season after replacing fired Joaquín Caparrós. He signed until 30 June.[6]
