Ivan Dudić (Serbian Cyrillic: Ивaн Дудић, born 13 February 1977) is a retired Serbian professional footballer who played as a right-back.
He represented several clubs, including Red Star Belgrade, Benfica and Újpest FC. He was an international for FR Yugoslavia, receiving 7 caps and participating in the UEFA Euro 2000.
Born in Zemun, Dudić started at Red Star Belgrade, from whom he debut in 1995, appearing in just one game as Red Star finished second in the league. After not competing in the next season, in 1997, he was sent on a six-month loan to the newly promoted Železnik. He returned to Red Star in the winter and appeared in six more matches in the season, finishing runner-up in the league for a second time. His breakthrough only arrived in 1998 at age 21, playing the majority of the league matches in 1998–99 and 1999–2000, winning the title in the latter.
His performance attracted attention from abroad, with Benfica signing him on 18 May 2000, for a fee that Record announced to be in the region of €2M. Dudić was scouted by Michel Preud'homme on two different games: 29 March 2000 in a Euro under-21 qualification match against England and in the eternal derby on 2 April, receiving positive feedback on both times. His signing was meant to solve the problematic right-back position that was occupied on different spells by either, Okonuwo, Andrade or Ricardo Esteves, but Dudić struggled to perform to expectations, playing just 20 league games and being transfer listed within a year.
