Milan Đurić (born 22 May 1990) is a Bosnian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Italian club Cesena and the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team.
Early life
Đurić was born in Tuzla, present day Bosnia and Herzegovina, at the time part of SFR Yugoslavia. His father, Goran, was a former Bosnian third division footballer. His family moved to Pesaro, in Italy in 1991, because of the outbreak of Bosnian war.[2] Although he was born in Tuzla, his family is from Vlasenica, Bosnia and Herzegovina, at that time part of SFR Yugoslavia.[3]
Club career
Early career
He played for Vis Pesaro's youth system until 2005, when the club declared bankruptcy and he was consequently released for free, being successively signed by San Marino and successively Cesena, where he played for the youth team coached by former Bosnian star Davor Jozić.[2][4]
Cesena
He made his first team debut for A.C. Cesena on 30 October 2007, in a match lost to Mantova[5] and scored his first professional goal a few weeks later in a league match against Frosinone. He was confirmed to Cesena also for the following season, in the Lega Pro Prima Divisione (Italian third tier).
Parma
In June 2010 he was swapped with Alberto Galuppo of Parma directly and no cash. On 30 June 2010, Đurić was loaned to Ascoli. On 28 January 2011, he was loaned out to Crotone. This deal was extended on 15 June 2011 for another year.
He spent the 2012–13 season on loan to Lega Pro Prima Divisione club Cremonese.
Cesena return
Later in July 2013 he was loaned to newly promoted Serie B club Trapani, after Cesena bought him back. In January 2014, he was then loaned to Cittadella.
After short loan spell to Cittadella, he spent 2014–15 season playing for Cesena in Serie A, being a first-team regular. His best performance came against Juventus, where he scored one goal, and assisted for the other, in a 2–2 draw.[6]
Cesena were relegated at the end of the season, but Đurić stayed at the club for the season 2015–16 in Serie B.
