	Predrag Mijatović - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Predrag Peđa Mijatović (Cyrillic: Предраг Мијатовић) (born January 19, 1969 in Podgorica, Montenegro) is a former football player and current sports director of Real Madrid.
		After going out in Champions League quarterfinals to Shevchenko-led Dynamo Kyiv (incidentaly, 2 matches where Mijatovic played some excellent football) and failing to win the league for the second season in a row, changes were clearly in order especially knowing the triggerhappy nature of Real brass.
		The management decided that the best days of now 30-year-old Mijatovic were behind him and sold him to Fiorentina at the end of the season.

		Mijatovic, unfortunately, was sent off after a tussle with Matthias Sammer and was suspended for the final, a penalty shoot-out victory against West Germany.
		Predrag (it means 'Dearest' in Serbo-Croat) Mijatovic was born on 19 January, 1969 in Podgorica, formerly Titograd, the capital of the small mountainous state of Montenegro.
		Mijatovic, who went into the tournament carrying a calf injury and subsequently had problems with his left knee, had a relatively quiet tournament and missed a penalty against the Dutch when the scores were level.
