Andrija Delibašić

**Andrija Delibašić** (Cyrillic: Андрија Делибашић, ; 24 April 1981 – 19 March 2025) was a Montenegrin professional footballer and manager. As a footballer, he played as a forward for teams in Serbia and Montenegro, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Thailand, and Montenegro.

He was capped 21 times for Montenegro, scoring six goals. He also played for Serbia and Montenegro at the 2004 Summer Olympics. After the breakup of Serbia and Montenegro into separate countries, Delibašić said he would never play for Montenegro if he was not called up to their first international matches. He would later make his debut on 10 October 2009, in a 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification match where they won 2–1 against Georgia, with Delibašić scoring the winning goal.

After retiring, he worked as an assistant manger at Partizan and Budućnost. He would later become the manager of Mornar between 2021 and 2023.

Delibašić died of brain cancer on 19 March 2025, at the age of 43.
