Playing career

In 1995, Sivić played for HK in Iceland.[1] He subsequently moved to the Faroe Islands, serving as player-manager for several clubs.[2][3]

Managerial career

In January 2005, Sivić was appointed as manager of Smederevo.[4] He resigned from his position in early November after three consecutive losses.[5] In June 2006, Sivić took charge of Voždovac,[6] but left the club after just two months due to poor results early in the season.[7]

On 31 July 2015, Sivić was named as manager of the Serbia under-21s.[8] He managed to qualify the team for the 2017 UEFA European Under-21 Championship via the play-offs.[9] However, on 26 December 2016, it was announced that Sivić left his position due to "private reasons",[10] only to take over as manager of Hungarian club Mezőkövesd the following day.[11]

Personal life

Sivić was born to a Bunjevac father and a Hungarian mother in Subotica, SFR Yugoslavia (in present-day Serbia). He obtained Hungarian citizenship in 2012.[12]
