[edit] Football career
[edit] Playing
Born in Osečenica, Ješić played for Partizan Belgrade between 1974 and 1985, taking part in 342 matches and scoring 81 goals.
For the Yugoslavia national football team, he played in 8 games and scored twice.
Between 1985 and 1989 he represented Altay SK, where he recorded 140 matches and 61 goals, and finished his career at Trabzonspor in 1989-90 with 40 matches and 9 goals.
Ješić is still one of the most hated figures amongst the Fenerbahçe supporters because of the injury he inflicted upon "Şeytan" Rıdvan Dilmen (Rıdvan the Devil) in 1990 during a league match between Fenerbahçe and Trabzonspor. Rıdvan never fully recovered despite undergoing sixteen operations, and eventually had to retire in 1995 at Fenerbahçe after painful years of injuries.
[edit] Coaching
As a manager, Ješić began his career at FK Obilić in 1993, reaching a Yugoslav Cup final, and then managed several other Serbian teams, including OFK Beograd and his native Partizan, that, during his period at the helm, scored 111 goals in a single season, a club record.
Coaching Tunisian side Club Sportif Sfaxien in 2000-01 and winning the Arab Champions League, he was at the helm of Turkish club SK Altay in 2002 and moved to Bulgaria in 2002 to manage Slavia Sofia and then Iranian Pegah Gilan F.C., after which he became the manager of CSKA Sofia. During this period he became a Champion of Bulgaria and recorded a win over FC Liverpool in the UEFA Champions League qualifying phase, also eliminating Bayer Leverkusen in the UEFA Cup. However, poor domestic performance meant Ješić was sacked in 2006.
In May 2006 he became the coach of FK Partizan, Belgrade for the second time in his coaching career. Sometimes naming FK Partizan his 'second home', Ješić often claimed to be truly devoted to the club. However, he was sacked from Partizan in January 2007. Since November 2007 he is coaching Litex Lovech.
