Milovan Rajevac (Serbian: Милован Рајевац; born 2 January 1954) is a Serbian football manager and former professional player who is currently the technical director of Muangthong United.

Playing career

[edit]

Born in Čajetina,[2] Rajevac played as a defender for Borac Čačak, Red Star Belgrade, Vojvodina, Lunds BK, and the New York Arrows (as "Mike Rajevac"[3][1]) and Sloboda Užice.

Managerial career

[edit]

Rajevac coached a number of club sides in his native Serbia, including Sloboda Užice, Red Star Belgrade, Vojvodina and Borac Čačak.[4]

He became Ghana manager in August 2008.[5][6] He continued the Black Stars's qualification campaign to 2010 World Cup. In the tournament, they almost reached the semi-final as they narrowly lost to Uruguay in the quarter-final via penalty shootout.[7]

Coach Milovan Rajevac with the Ghana national football team

Rajevac quit Ghana after the World Cup on 8 September 2010, and took up a position with Saudi Arabian team Al-Ahli a day later.[8]

He left the Saudi club in February 2011 to take up the role as national team coach for Qatar.[9] He was relieved of duties in August 2011.[10]

In September 2011, Rajevac was one of four managers linked with the Egyptian national team,[11] and in February 2014 he was one of four managers linked with the Burkina Faso national team.[12]

On 15 June 2016, he was officially appointed as manager of Rudar Velenje in Slovenia.[13][14] However, on 26 June 2016 he was appointed as manager of the Algerian national team.[15] He resigned from the position in October 2016, after two matches.[16]

In April 2017, after the resignation of Kiatisuk Senamuang,[17] he had an interview with Football Association of Thailand and was expected to become the head coach of the Thailand national football team.[18] Eventually, he was appointed on one-year deal with an option for another one year by Football Association of Thailand on 26 April 2017.[19][20]

On 5 February 2018, Football Association of Thailand announced the extension of Rajevac's contract to 2020.[21]

He was sacked on 7 January 2019 following a 4–1 defeat against India in the 2019 AFC Asian Cup.[22][23]

He returned to manage the Ghana national team for a second time in September 2021.[24] He was sacked in January 2022 after the exit of the Black Stars at the delayed AFCON 2021 tournament.[25]

In October 2022 he became the technical director of Muangthong United.[26]
