Predrag Pavlović (Serbian Cyrillic: Предраг Павловић; born 19 June 1986) is a Serbian footballer who plays for Jelen SuperLiga club Novi Pazar, mainly as a right winger.

Club career

After coming through the youth ranks of Partizan, Pavlović made his professional debut with his hometown club Napredak in the 2004–05 season. He also played for Partizan's satellite club Teleoptik, before going back on loan to Napredak in January 2006. Pavlović signed a permanent contract with Napredak in the summer of 2006, becoming one of the most important players for the team in the following seasons.

In the summer of 2010, Pavlović moved abroad for the first time by signing with Hungarian side Debreceni VSC. He played only for their II team in the Nemzeti Bajnokság II, before being released near the end of the year. In January 2011, Pavlović returned to his homeland and, after a six-month stint with Metalac Gornji Milanovac, he signed a four-year deal with OFK Beograd.

Pavlović retired from professional football in October 2013, at the age of 27, due to a long history of injury problems. However, he came out of retirement in February of the following year by signing with Novi Pazar.

International career

Already capped for the Serbian national under-21 team, Pavlović made one appearance at the 2007 UEFA Under-21 Championship that was hosted in the Netherlands. He was also a member of the team that represented Serbia at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, but failed to make an appearance.
