Career

He played in FK Zemun, FK Partizan, FK Radnički Kragujevac, OFK Belgrade, FK Vojvodina (where he get to be the team captain) and FK Crvena Zvezda. In 2000, he emigrated to China where he played one season in Beijing Guoan. After that experience, he signed with Swiss club FC Lucerne where he helped the club in its return to the elite. But, the next season, there was a change in the club's direction and a new manager, so Nikoslav was informed that as the most expensive player in the squad, the club could not afford to keep him. He accepted but only by the terms that were written in the contract. That was the turning point in the relations and the torture begin, with him being transferred to the youth squad after not having accepted an offer of 50% of the contract. That's the main reason wy he played only eight matches in those two seasons in the Swiss club.

National team

He played one match for the FR Yugoslavia national team, it was on 23 December 1998 in Tel-Aviv, against Israel ( 0-2 loss).[1]
