Ruben Zadkovich (born May 23, 1986) is an Australian football (soccer) player. He currently plays as a midfielder for Sydney FC in the Hyundai A-League.

Zadkovich had previously played for English League Two club Notts County, as well as Queens Park Rangers and Wollongong Wolves. He has also made several appearances for the Young Socceroos, most notably at the FIFA World Youth Championship.

Following his time in England, Zadkovich returned to Australia in late 2005 and trialled for Sydney FC. He travelled with the squad to the FIFA Club World Championship and despite not making an appearance he impressed coach Littbarski, being called in as a short-term replacement for injured Ufuk Talay late in the season. After a 12 minute debut off the bench against Queensland Roar, Ruben impressed with his first start against Perth Glory (which included a goal), and played a significant role in Sydney's run to the inaugural A-League championship, earning him a two year full-time contract.
