Early career

Born in Titograd (currently known as Podgorica, the capital of Montenegro) he lived as a youngster in Serbia, in the city Lučani, where he played for the youth team of the local club FK Mladost Lučani. He later joined FK Budućnost Podgorica where he made his senior debut playing in the Montenegrin First League in the 2008–09 season. He also had a half season loan spell with FK Mladost Podgorica.[1]

Red Star Belgrade

Vešović was scouted and purchased by Red Star Belgrade from FK Budućnost Podgorica in June 2010. In his debut in a friendly match against Slovenian champion FC Koper, Vešović scored his first goal for Red Star Belgrade.[2]

Torino

In January 2014, Italian side Torino had an interest in signing Vešović and the deal was completed before the January transfer window closed. On 7 February 2014, he was officially added to the Torino's first team squad.[3] By the end of the 2014 season, Vešović made a total of four appearances for Torino.[4]

Loan to Rijeka

He signed with Rijeka on a one-year loan with Rijeka having the option to entirely purchase his services from Torino.[4]

International career

After having been part of the Montenegrin U-19 team, Marko Vešović has been a regular presence in the Montenegrin U-21 team since 2009.[1] On May 20, 2013, Marko was called up for Montenegro national football team for the first time.[5] After being an unused substitute in several games, he finally made his debut for Montenegro on October 15, 2013, as a substitute in the last match of the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification against Moldova.[6]
