Career

After two seasons in Italy with Atalanta, the Serbian defender joined Juventus in the 1998/99 season. Once he had overcome the normal problems of settling in, Zoran has proved to be a solid player. His physical and technical skills allow him to play in a number of positions. His main position is right-back but he can be deployed on the left too. In Ancelotti's new three-man defence he is often used on the right. Former clubs:FK Rad, FK Partizan, Atalanta BC 62 games for Rad 1990-93; 82 for Partizan 1993-96
