Nemanja Kuzmanović (born 27 May 1989) is a Serbian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Nea Salamis Famagusta FC.

Club career

Kuzmanović was born in Šabac, Yugoslavia.[1] He started playing senior football at lower amateur competitions in Serbia, Romania and Austria. His first professional engagement was with Bohemians Střížkov in the Czech National Football League, where he arrived in 2012. Before the 2014–15 season, he transferred to SFC Opava. He played regularly at the club for the next four and half seasons and worked his way up to the position of team captain. In the 2017–18 season, he became the second top scorer of the competition with 18 goals and helped his team to promote to the Czech First League.[2][3]

At the beginning of 2019, he transferred to a regional rival team, Baník Ostrava in the Czech First League.[3] In the following seasons, he played 142 league matches for Ostrava and became one of the top scorers in the modern history of the club with 24 league goals.[4] In 2023, Baník Ostrava decided not to extend Kuzmanović's contract, so he transferred to the Cyprian club Nea Salamis Famagusta.[5]
