Josip Višnjić (Cyrillic: Jocип Bишњић; born 17 November 1966) is a Serbian retired footballer who played as a defensive midfielder, and most recently was coach of Fuenlabrada. His first name has also been spelled as Josif.
After starting out at Radnički Niš, he went on to spend the vast majority of his career in Spain, as both a player and manager. In La Liga, he represented Rayo Vallecano and Hércules.
In his country, Belgrade-born Višnjić played for FK Radnički Niš and FK Partizan. At nearly 25 he moved abroad, going on to spend the remaining years of his career in Spain, with three clubs: he started out with CP Mérida in the second division, then achieved both one promotion and relegation from La Liga with Madrid's Rayo Vallecano.
In 1995, Višnjić signed with Hércules CF in Alicante, playing 30 matches in his first season which ended in top flight promotion, followed by immediate relegation. After the club's demotion into the third level in 1999, the 32-year-old retired one year later, having appeared in 88 games in the Spanish top division (238 with both major levels accounted for).
