Krešimir Kordić (born September 3, 1981 in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina) is a Bosnian football player who currently plays for HŠK Zrinjski Mostar.

Club Career

Kordić made his professional debut for boyhood and hometown club HŠK Zrinjski Mostar in 1999. In his first two seasons as a professional, the striker scored 16 goals in 41 appearances, earning himself a move to 1. HNL side NK Hrvatski Dragovoljac in January of 2002. After six months with NK Hrvatski Dragovoljac where Krešimir failed to establish himself as a first team regular, he moved to Croatian side NK Zadar. In three years with Zadar, Kordić managed seven goals in 32 appearances.

In 2005, Kordić made his return to Mostar, resigning with HŠK Zrinjski Mostar. His spell at Zrinjski was very successful, scoring 21 goals in 46 games. In 2007, Kordić moved to fellow Croatian - Hercegovinian side NK Posušje and had another successful season. After just one year with Posušje, Kordić moved back to Zrinjski and scored 33 goals in 71 games over the next two seasons.

In 2010, Kordic made his first international transfer, moving to Slovak side ŠK Slovan Bratislava. Kordic won the Corgoň liga in his first season with the Slovak club. He was loaned out to FK DAC 1904 Dunajská Streda in 2012 and spent six months there.

Once his contract with Slovan expired, NK Široki Brijeg enticed him back to BiH and he signed a two year contract. He scored 20 goals in 52 games in national and continental competitions for Široki.

In the summer of 2014, newly crowned champions of Bosnia and Hercegovina HŠK Zrinjski Mostar brought back the fan favourite as their first reinforcement.
