Dimitrije Dimitrijević (footballer)

Dimitrije Dimitrijević (died 1984) was a Bosnian-Herzegovinian football player who played between two world wars. He was one of the founders of FK Željezničar and a scorer of the first goal ever by this football club.

Just like all the other founders of FK Željezničar, he worked as a railway worker in Sarajevo. It was his idea to form a football club as a way of recreation in 1921. This idea was accepted with joy by his colleagues at work. FK Željezničar played its first game on September 17, 1921. against SAŠK Sarajevo. Despite losing by 5-1, that game meant the beginning of the club which was later to become widely popular. Dimitrije Dimitrijević scored the only FK Željezničar goal of the game.
