Over the course of his career, Mihajlovic played for Italian football clubs Roma, Sampdoria, Lazio and Inter and then managed Bologna, Catania, Fiorentina, Milan and Torino, as well as Portugal's Sporting and the Serbian national team. He is survived by his wife, their five children and a granddaughter.
