2. Dragan Džajić

Even though many people consider him to be the best soccer player to have ever emerged from Serbia, Džajić ends up second on our list. Deadly left winger has scored 144 goals in 361 official matches; all of them for Red Star and Bastia, his only two clubs. He has also managed to bag in 23 goals for Yugoslavia on 85 occasions. His passing, goal-scoring and dribbling skills are rarely seen even in modern football and will remain testament for countless future generations of soccer players. After all, you don’t have to believe us. Here’s what famous Pelé had to say about him: “Džajić is the Balkan miracle – a real wizard. I’m just sorry he’s not Brazilian because I’ve never seen such a natural footballer”.
