Club career

He was captain of Rudar Prijedor for four seasons and had a three-year spell in Israel.[2]

International career

Žerić made his debut for Bosnia and Herzegovina in a September 1997 World Cup qualification match away against Croatia and has earned a total of 2 caps, scoring no goals. His second and final international was a November 1997 friendly match away against Tunisia.[3]

Managerial career

In September 2015, Žerić earned his UEFA coaching license, the second former Rudar Prijedor player to do so after Željko Buvač.[4]

He was expected to take over managerial duties from Igor Janković at Kozara Gradiška in 2019[5] after earlier leading the charges at Jedinstvo Bihać, Rudar Prijedor and Podgrmeč, where he had succeeded Alen Mešanović in February 2016.[6] He only lasted two months at Podgrmeč, though.[7] He replaced Selam Tulić at Jedinstvo in January 2017,[8] but left the club after saving them from relegation in June 2017.[9]

He had worked as an assistant to head coach Velimir Stojnić at Rudar and temporarily took over when Stojnić was sacked in March 2013.[10]
