Total Player 2019 by Dejan Savić

November 7, 2019

Dejan Savić, who played for the national team of Serbia (earlier Yugoslavia) 444 times, has been coaching the national team of Serbia since 2013.

Over the years, he’s built a reputation of a water polo icon as he led Serbia on a long golden streak. Apart from his work in the Serbian National Team, he’s seen his share of club water polo. He played in clubs from all over Europe, including Partizan, Barceloneta, Pro Recco, Crvena Zvezda, just to name a few.

This year, Serbia, under Savić’s guidance, won the 2019 World League and became the first team which qualified for the 2020 Olympic Games. Playing without a few main players, the Serbian team finished 5th at the World Championships in Gwangju.

See Savić’s choice of the best world players in 2019.
