With one round remaining in the season, where FK Partizan will host FK Radnik Surdulica, the SuperLiga Serbia Clubs Association has announced the Team of the Season for 2025/26, which includes Partizan first-team player Nikola Simić.

The award carries additional weight given that it was voted on by the coaches and captains of all top-tier clubs, as defined by the competition rules. Furthermore, the Partizan defender is the second-youngest player among the league’s best eleven, once again highlighting the club’s decision to rely on young talents from its own academy.

“It is a great honor to be in the Team of the Season, but honestly, I wouldn’t have received this recognition without my teammates. Only a strong team can bring an individual to the forefront—and we were exactly that. It’s true we didn’t achieve everything we wanted, but one thing no one can take away from us is that we fought for each other and for the Partizan badge from the very start of the season. That’s why this recognition belongs to the entire dressing room, and I hope that next year there will be many more Partizan players here,” said Nikola Simić, who was recently named the best young defender in the world in a study by the respected CIES Football Observatory.
