Darko Stanić (Serbian Cyrillic: Дарко Станић; born 8 October 1978) is a Serbian former handball player.

Career

After making his EHF Champions League debut with Crvena zvezda, Stanić moved abroad to Switzerland and joined TV Suhr in early 2005.[1] He spent the next season at fellow Swiss club Grasshoppers. In April 2006, Stanić tested positive for cocaine after a play-off match with St. Gallen. He consequently received a six-month ban from handball.[2] However, the ban was eventually extended for a period of two years, starting on 22 May 2006.[3]

After serving his two-year suspension, Stanić signed with Slovenian club Koper in May 2008.[4] He spent three seasons in Slovenia, before moving to Macedonian side Metalurg Skopje. Later on, Stanić also briefly played in Germany (SG BBM Bietigheim and Rhein-Neckar Löwen), Kuwait (Kuwait SC), and Qatar (El Jaish and Al Sadd).

Stanić made his major international debut for Serbia at the 2009 World Men's Handball Championship. He was later an integral part of the team that won the silver medal at the 2012 European Men's Handball Championship, being named the tournament's best goalkeeper.[5] Stanić also participated in the 2012 Summer Olympics.
