Stefan Šćepović (Serbian Cyrillic: Cтeфaн Шћeпoвић; born January 10, 1990) is a Serbian footballer who plays as striker for Spanish side Sporting de Gijón and the Serbia national football team. He is the older brother of Marko Šćepović and the son of former Partizan striker and now one of the youth coaches, Slađan Šćepović.

He is known as the first newcomer player in the history of Sporting de Gijón to have ever scored in his first five consecutive games.[1]

Club career

Early career

Šćepović started his professional career at OFK Beograd in 2007. In 2010 he left on loan to Sampdoria.[2] As part of the agreement, Sampdoria have an option to sign him permanently at the end of the season.[3] At the end of the season, Šćepović was linked to Juventus and Belgian Club Brugge, signing with the latter.[4]

Club Brugge

In July 2010 Šćepović joined Belgian club Club Brugge.[5] After suffering a goal drought in the first half of the season, he was loaned to Kortrijk in January 2011.[6] Belgian media also described that he was most remembered in Brugge for accidentally locking himself in a bathroom in Affligem hours before a friendly.[7]

Partizan

On 7 June 2012, Šćepović signed a two-year contract with FK Partizan.[8] He featured with Partizan in the 2012–13 UEFA Europa League and played against the likes of Internazionale, Rubin Kazan, and Neftchi Baku.

Sporting Gijón

In July 2013 Šćepović signed a three-year loan deal with Sporting de Gijón, with a buyout clause.[9] In September he became the first player in the history of the club who managed to score in his first five consecutive games (against Real Madrid Castilla, Recreativo de Huelva, Mallorca, Ponferradina and Deportivo de La Coruña).[1] This great performance was rewarded with the Segunda División Player of Month prize.[10]

In January 2014 Šćepović was voted by the readers of Spanish sports newspaper Marca, best player of the first half of season, being referred as "the king of Segunda".[11] Also, he was named in the campaign's midway best eleven, chosen by LFP.[12]

On 6 February 2014 Šćepović was bought by Sporting outright for a 1 million fee,[13] with the Serbian penning a contract until 2018.[14]

International career

Šćepović made his debut for the Serbia national football team on February 29, 2012 in a friendly match against Cyprus. He scored his first goal for Serbia against Macedonia on October 15, 2013.
