Club career

edit

Early career

edit

Born in Bijelo Polje, Đalović began his football career in his hometown club FK Jedinstvo Bijelo Polje. He was soon noticed by scouts of Red Star Belgrade, who had just sold Perica Ognjenović to Real Madrid. Đalović, being a powerful and very athletic player, impressed the Belgrade side and signed for them, but later failed to make a lasting impression at the club. After only half a season, he was transferred to FK Železnik. Later, he played for the Turkish side Kayseri Erciyesspor, and had successful spells with Zagreb and Rijeka. He was known for his speed, agility, and athletic finesse, as well as impressive bicycle kicks.

Rapid Bucharest

edit

In the summer of 2008, Đalović joined Romanian side Rapid Bucharest, after the club had paid Rijeka a transfer fee of 700,000. After one season with the club, Rapid Bucharest loaned him back to Rijeka for a season, and in the summer of 2010, after Rijeka had paid Rapid Bucharest a transfer fee of 50,000, he was officially a Rijeka player once again.

Amkar Perm

edit

In March 2012, Đalović completed another transfer, this time to Amkar Perm, after the club had paid Rijeka a transfer fee of 450,000.

Sepahan

edit

Soon after, in the summer of 2012, Đalović joined Iranian side Sepahan, after the club had paid Amkar Perm a transfer fee of 600,000.[2] Sepahan was coached by Zlatko Kranjčar who had previously coached Đalović at Zagreb between 2002 and 2004. Although Đalović impressed during the 2013 AFC Champions League group stage by scoring against Al Nasr SC (Dubai) and Al-Ahli (Jeddah), Sepahan did not qualify for the knock out stages.

Shanghai Shenxin

edit

In February 2014, Đalović completed a transfer to Chinese Super League side Shanghai Shenxin for an undisclosed amount.[3]

OFK Titograd

edit

In June 2019, Đalović signed for OFK Titograd on a free transfer.[4]

International career

edit

He made his debut for Montenegro in an October 2007 friendly match against Estonia and has earned a total of 26 caps (22 official), scoring 7 goals, which places him sixth on Montenegro's all-time top scorer list.[5] His final international was a November 2011 European Championship qualification match against the Czech Republic.[6] He retired on 18 February 2012 for personal reasons.
