Aleksandar Katai

Aleksandar Katai is a Serbian attacking midfielder and winger who plays for Crvena zvezda. The club's number ten was born in Srbobran and is known for close control, changes of direction and the ability to finish attacks from the left side or a central position.

Katai has played for Red Star in two separate periods. By October 2025, the club recorded 330 appearances and 163 goals in all matches, including 144 goals in competitive fixtures. Those figures are attached to the source date so they are not confused with a live total that continues to change.

His role is wider than a fixed forward position. Katai can receive near the touchline, move inside onto his stronger foot and combine around the penalty area. He also takes responsibility at set pieces. The strongest part of his game is not one repeated dribble, but the ability to recognise when a defender has shifted weight and left a route toward goal.

Crvena zvezda extended his contract through 2027. The agreement keeps an experienced attacking player inside a squad that also needs younger options to develop. Katai's value includes goals, but it also includes decision-making in domestic title races, cup ties and European matches where one controlled action can decide a tight contest.
