Players who left a strong mark

Vili Ameršek
432 matches, 106 goals
The 1948 – born from Zasavje region of Slovenia is one of those footballers who have made a huge contribution to making Olimpija what it is today – a giant.

Tone Rožič
385 matches, 68 goals
What Paolo Maldini was for AC Milan, Tone Rožič was for Olimpija. It is true that he didn’t play as a defender, but as an attacker. However, he spent his entire career, both in the youth and senior teams, among the dragons.

Zoran Ubavić
283 matches, 167 goals
The King of the penalty area was a nightmare for defenders and goalkeepers of opposing teams. V 1. He played 149 matches in the SNL and scored 82 goals, 29 of them in the first season of the independent Slovenia.

Branko Oblak
218 matches, 45 goals
One of the best Slovenian footballers of all time, one of the best Olimpija players of all time and a club legend in every possible way.

Danilo Popivoda
261 matches, 66 goals
He has gone down in history as one of the best and, above all, most popular Olimpija players of all time. As a winger, he was renowned for his quick penetrations and his skill with the ball at his feet.

Miloš Šoškić
360 matches, 1 goal
His debut in the green and white jersey was spectacular. When Miloš Šoškić, who came to Slovenia from Serbia at the age of 21, first played for Olimpija, they drew 4-4 with Lokomotiva from Zagreb in the 2nd Yugoslav League!

Radoslav Bečejac
136 matches, 24 goals
There is no doubt that Radoslav Bečejac is one of the greatest legends in the history of Olimpija, even though he played “only” 136 games for the Dragons. But sometimes the number of games doesn’t tell the whole story, and in his case it’s true.

Marko Elsner
112 matches, 12 goals
One of the most elegant footballers the audience at Bežigrad has ever seen, was destined for a football career from the cradle. It was his father Branko Elsner, an Olimpija coaching legend, who brought Marko to the green and white team.

Srečko Katanec
81 matches, 10 goals
One of the best Slovenian footballers of all time and later the architect of the golden fairytale, which reached its peak with the qualification of the senior national team for Euro 2000 and the 2002 World Cup.

Dušan Kosić
292 matches, 51 goals
In independent Slovenia, no one has played more league matches for Olimpija. There were countless matches in which the footballer from Štepanjsko naselje wore the captain’s armband on his arm.
