Filip Knežević (Serbian Cyrillic: Филип Кнежевић; born 8 November 1991) is a Serbian footballer who plays as a winger for Serbian SuperLiga club Čukarički.

Club career

Borac Čačak

Before making his professional debut for Borac Čačak, Knežević was the top goalscorer of Borac's youth team.[1] He made his debut for Borac Čačak at the age of 17[1] in the 2009–10 season, during which he scored one goal in 23 league appearances. In the following seasons he would become Borac's most prolific attacking player in terms of appearances.[1] By the time he left Borac, he was regarded as one of the brightest football talents in Serbia, with the Serbian press even comparing him to Cristiano Ronaldo due to his signature dribbling and speed.[1][2]

Partizan

On 16 June 2012, Knežević signed a four-year contract with Partizan, and was assigned the number 77 on his jersey.[3] By December 2012, he featured for Partizan in just one league match, with coach Vladimir Vermezović giving him only 50 minutes of playing time over his first four months at the club.[1]

Loan to Radnički 1923

He then spent the 2013–14 season on loan with Radnički 1923. On October 19, 2013, Knežević scored a brace in Radnički's 3-2 win against OFK Beograd.[4] On May 3, 2014, Knežević scored in Radnički's 1-0 win against Čukarički, in a match that determined whether or not Radnički would remain in the SuperLiga or get demoted to the Serbian second tier.[5]

Vitória Guimarães

On 4 July 2014, Knežević signed a three-year contract for Primeira Liga side Vitória Guimarães.[6]

International career

Knežević played three matches for the Serbian national under-21 team, making his debut in a friendly against Ukraine U21 on 29 March 2011. He recorded two more appearances that year.
