Sportske novosti

'Sports News') is a Croatian daily sports newspaper based in Zagreb.

From 1974 to 1987 it had a circulation of 100,000 copies which turned Sportske novosti into the most popular sports newspaper in Yugoslavia.

[citation needed] In 1952 it established the annual Sportsman of the Year (Sportaš godine) and Sportswoman of the Year (Sportašica godine) awards for notable achievements in Yugoslav sports, selected by the jury of sports journalists from around the country.

On 30 December 2005 Zvonimir Boban was appointed CEO of Sportske novosti[3] who later announced that the newspaper would in the future give more attention to football-related news.

Boban resigned from his position in December 2008 due to his long-standing dissatisfaction with the editorial board.
