Savo Milošević (Serbian Cyrilic: Саво Милошевић) (born September 2, 1973 in Bijeljina, SFR Yugoslavia) is Serbian football striker, the all-time leading scorer and cap leader for the Serbia and Montenegro national football team. He retired from international duty following the 2006 FIFA World Cup. He played his 101st - and he says last - full international match against Côte d'Ivoire on 21 June 2006 (coming on as a second half substitute), which was Serbia and Montenegro's last game in the 2006 FIFA World Cup before being eliminated from the competition.
At club level, Milošević has played for FK Partizan (1992-95), Aston Villa (1995-98), Real Zaragoza (1998-2000 and 2002), Parma (2000-01), Espanyol (2002-03), Celta Vigo (2003-04) and CA Osasuna (2004-).
He played for the then-Yugoslavia in the 1998 World Cup and Euro 2000. At the latter he was the joint scoring champion of the tournament alongside Patrick Kluivert. Both scored five goals.
On June 16, 2006 Milošević played his 100th cap for Serbia and Montenegro in the 2006 World Cup group game against Argentina, a national record. Argentina won this match 6-0. He is also the team's leading goal-scorer, with 35 goals.
