Boško Janković

Red Star Belgrade

Having gone through all age groups in the Red Star Belgrade youth setup, an 18-year-old Janković earned his first taste of full squad action throughout fall 2002, during the first half of the 2002–03 season under head coach Zoran Filipović. However, over the winter 2002–03 break in January 2003, Janković was loaned out to lower division side Jedinstvo Ub along with Dušan Basta and Aleksandar Luković in order to gain experience through regular playing time. Over the next season and a half in Ub, he excelled in an attacking midfielder position, scoring 21 league goals in 28 matches. At the beginning of 2003–04 league season, Jankovic along with a group of other Red Star youth players was registered both for Red Star and Jedinstvo, which in practice meant that he trained with Red Star during the week while playing league matches for Jedinstvo on Saturdays. However, following the winter break, head coach Slavoljub Muslin decided to discontinue this practice, making the players both train and play with Jedinstvo. All the success prompted new head coach Ljupko Petrović and the rest in Red Star management to bring Janković back during summer 2004, ahead of the 2004–05 season. The move paid immediate dividends as he scored a spectacular free kick goal versus PSV Eindhoven in the first leg of UEFA Champions League third qualifying round. He followed that up with a notable domestic season in which he scored 10 goals in 25 appearances, showing early signs of…

Janković played for Serbia U21 in the 2007 UEFA European Under-21 Championship where he scored a goal against the Czech Republic in Serbia's second group B match. Serbia finished in second place in the tournament with Janković named in the UEFA Team of the Tournament. Janković scored his first goal for Serbia against Portugal in a Euro 2008 qualifying match on 28 March 2007. He then followed up with another goal versus Finland in another Euro 2008 qualifying match on 2 June 2007. Although a regular, Janković missed out on the 2010 FIFA World Cup due to injury. He amassed a total of 31 caps, scoring 5 goals. His final international was a May 2012 friendly match away against France.
