Djordje Petrovic, born on October 8, 1999, is a Serbian goalkeeper who plays for Chelsea in the Premier League and represents the Serbia national team. He began his career at FK Cukaricki’s academy in 2014 before advancing to the club’s first team in 2019. After a loan spell at FK IMT in the 2018–19 season, he made 78 league appearances for Cukaricki, alongside appearances in the Serbian Cup and UEFA Europa Conference League. Petrovic signed a three-year deal with the New England Revolution in April 2022. His stellar performances earned him recognition, being named a finalist for both the MLS Newcomer of the Year Award and the MLS Goalkeeper of the Year Award in his debut season.

His 2023 season saw remarkable achievements, setting records as the fastest player in MLS history to make five penalty saves and consistently surpassing performance metrics. Petrovic’s excellence attracted interest from many top European clubs and led to his selection in the 2023 MLS All-Star team. Despite bids from FC Nantes and Nottingham Forest, the Revolution declined offers around $8 million plus add-ons for Petrovic, resulting in his absence from training and matches.

In a significant move, Petrovic joined Chelsea in August 2023 on a seven-year contract with the possibility of extending it further. He made his Premier League debut for Chelsea in December 2023, contributing to a 2–0 victory against Sheffield United. Internationally, Petrovic debuted for the Serbia U21 team in 2020 and later made his senior national team debut in January 2021, starting in a match against the Dominican Republic.
