Ratko Svilar (Serbian Cyrillic: Ратко Свилар; born 6 May 1950) is a Serbian retired footballer who played as a goalkeeper.

Having played for Antwerp for nearly 20 years, he also coached the Belgian club on several occasions.

Football career

Born in Crvenka, Svilar joined Royal Antwerp F.C. in November 1980 from FK Vojvodina – he started his career with lowly hometown side FK Crvenka – and proceeded to endure a 16-year spell with the Belgian outfit, alternating between the posts and the bench as he totalled 249 league appearances (both top divisions combined).

Svilar retired from professional play aged 46, going on to have several coaching spells with his last and most important club. On the international level he played for Yugoslavia (nine games), and was a participant at the 1982 FIFA World Cup.
