Playing career

Between 1988 and 1990, Sivić spent two seasons with Bačka Subotica in the Vojvodina League,[1] the fourth tier of Yugoslav football. He would later play for Spartak Subotica during the 1992–93 First League of FR Yugoslavia.

In 1995, Sivić played for HK in Iceland.[2] He subsequently moved to the Faroe Islands, serving as player-manager for several clubs.[3][4]

Managerial career

In January 2005, Sivić was appointed as manager of Smederevo.[5] He resigned from his position in early November after three consecutive losses.[6] In June 2006, Sivić took charge of Voždovac,[7] but left the club after just two months due to poor results early in the season.[8]

On 31 July 2015, Sivić was named as manager of the Serbia under-21s.[9] He managed to qualify the team for the 2017 UEFA European Under-21 Championship via the play-offs.[10] However, on 26 December 2016, it was announced that Sivić left his position due to "private reasons",[11] only to take over as manager of Hungarian club Mezőkövesd the following day.[12]

Personal life

Sivić was born to a Bunjevac father and a Hungarian mother in Subotica, SFR Yugoslavia (present-day Serbia). He obtained Hungarian citizenship in 2012.[13]
