Miloš Krasić is a Serbian former professional footballer who played as a winger. Renowned for his explosive pace, dribbling, and crossing ability, he enjoyed a successful club career across several European leagues and was a key figure for the Serbia national football team during the late 2000s. His most notable spells were with CSKA Moscow, where he won multiple domestic and European honours, and Juventus in Serie A.
Born in Kosovska Mitrovica, then part of the SFR Yugoslavia, Krasić began his football journey with local club Rudar Kosovska Mitrovica. His talent was quickly identified, leading to a move to the youth academy of Vojvodina, a prominent club in the Serbian SuperLiga. He progressed through their ranks, making his professional debut for Vojvodina and showcasing the attacking flair that would define his career, which soon attracted attention from scouts across Europe.
Krasić's professional breakthrough came with a 2004 transfer to Russian giants CSKA Moscow. Under managers like Valery Gazzaev and Leonid Slutsky, he became a vital component of a successful side, winning three Russian Premier League titles and four Russian Cup trophies. He notably scored in the 2005 UEFA Cup final victory over Sporting CP, helping CSKA Moscow secure a historic European trophy. In 2010, he joined Italian powerhouse Juventus, where he initially impressed under Luigi Delneri and later Antonio Conte. After two seasons in Serie A and the Coppa Italia, he moved to Turkish club Fenerbahçe, winning the Süper Lig in 2014. His later career included spells with Polish side Lechia Gdańsk and a return to Serbia with Mladost Lučani before retiring.
Krasić was a regular for the Serbia national football team from 2006 to 2011, earning 46 caps. He was part of the squad that qualified for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, appearing in matches against Ghana and Australia in the group stage. He also played a significant role in the team's successful qualification campaign for UEFA Euro 2012 under manager Vladimir Petrović, though Serbia ultimately did not reach the final tournament. His international career coincided with the era of notable teammates like Dejan Stanković and Nemanja Vidić.
A classic right winger, Krasić was primarily known for his exceptional speed, acceleration, and direct running. He excelled at beating defenders in one-on-one situations, often utilizing step-overs and changes of pace. His primary contributions were creating chances through precise crosses from the flank and providing assists for strikers. Coaches such as Leonid Slutsky and Antonio Conte valued his ability to stretch defenses and his work rate in both offensive and defensive phases of play on the wing.
Krasić made over 150 appearances for CSKA Moscow, scoring 26 goals in all competitions including the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Cup. At Juventus, he featured in 40 Serie A matches, netting 8 times. His stint at Fenerbahçe yielded 14 goals in 37 Süper Lig games. For the Serbia national football team, his 46 international appearances included qualifying matches for major tournaments like the FIFA World Cup and UEFA European Championship.
