Playing career

Born in Sarajevo, SR Bosnia and Herzegovina, SFR Yugoslavia, Dudić started his career playing in the youth teams of Sarajevo, but still young, he moved to Croatia where he became part of the Zagreb championship winning squad in the 2001–02 season.[1]

He would have a short loan spell with another 1. HNL side, TŠK Topolovac before returning to Bosnia where he would play for several clubs during the following seasons, namely Sloboda Tuzla, Brotnjo, Sarajevo, with whom he won the 2004–05 Bosnian Cup, Travnik and Željezničar. He also played with Karlovac in the 2. HNL during the 2005–06 season.[2]

During the summer of 2010, and having become the 2009–10 Bosnian Premier League top goalscorer with 16 goals, Dudić came to Hajduk Split for a trial,[3] however he ended up signing with another 1. HNL side, Varaždin, where he was a part of the team that finished as a Croatian Cup runner-up in the 2010–11 cup season.

In the summer of 2011, Dudić moved back to Bosnia, signing with newly promoted team GOŠK Gabela, but in the following winter break, newly promoted Serbian SuperLiga side Novi Pazar decided to reinforce their team with players from the Bosnian Premier League, bringing him alongside Admir Raščić.

After Novi Pazar, Dudić played for Slavija Sarajevo, Travnik again and Zvijezda Gradačac, before retiring in 2016 at the age of 33.

Managerial career

Early career

After retiring, Dudić became an assistant manager at Travnik in 2016, where he stayed until June 2017.[4]

GOŠK Gabela

On 27 November 2017, Dudić was named new manager of the club that he before played in, GOŠK Gabela, after then manager Slaven Musa resigned.[5] With GOŠK, he made a great result by finishing 7th in the 2017–18 Bosnian Premier League season.[6]

In the next, 2018–19 season, GOŠK started of really good under the guidance of Dudić, but after a series of poor results, which culminated with a 0–0 draw against Čelik Zenica, on 26 September 2018, Dudić resigned from the position of manager of GOŠK, after almost a year of him being the manager.[7]

Velež Mostar

On 5 August 2019, Dudić became the new manager of Velež Mostar.[8] In his first match as the club's manager, Velež tied 0–0 against Sloboda Tuzla away on 10 August 2019, winning their first point in the 2019–20 league season.[9] His first win with Velež came on 17 August 2019, in a 1–0 home league win against Široki Brijeg.[10] Dudić's first loss as Velež manager was a 2–1 away league loss against Sarajevo on 24 August 2019.[11]

In his first ever Mostar derby, Dudić's Velež beat fierce city rivals Zrinjski Mostar 1–0 at home in a league match on 19 October 2019, marking that Velež's first Mostar derby win in over 5 years.[12] He was also praised by Velež fans for his team's 0–2 away league win against Željezničar on 7 December 2019.[13] Dudić's next big result came on 8 March 2020, when Velež beat Borac Banja Luka 2–1 at home in another league match.[14]

In the first game of the 2020–21 season on 1 August 2020, Velež handled a tough 3–0 loss against Željezničar,[15] but in the second game, on 8 August, Dudić's team managed to beat city rivals Zrinjski for a second time in a row.[16]

On 31 October 2020, Velež got defeated by Zrinjski in the Mostar derby, with Dudić taking the blame.[17]

On 28 December 2020, he extended his contract with the club until June 2023.[18]
