Ilija Ivić born 17 February 1971 in Zrenjanin is a retired Serbian footballer. Ivić works currently as (Director of football) Red Star Belgrade and his last job was the Technical Manager of the Greek side Olympiacos.

While at Olympiacos CFP he won the Greek championship in 1997, 1998, and the double in 1999, having his best campaign in the second of those title triumphs, claiming 26 goals in 32 matches. He was a member of Olympiacos squad in 1999-99 UEFA Champions League, when his team achieved its greatest success in European competition while they reached the quarter finals and being eliminated by Juventus.
