Adem Ljajić (Serbian Cyrillic: Адем Љајић, pronounced [ǎːdem ʎǎːjitɕ]; born 29 September 1991) is a Serbian professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Bosnian Premier League club Sarajevo.

Ljajić began his career with FK Jošanica, and later Partizan, with whom he made his debut in the Serbian SuperLiga and UEFA Champions League. In January 2010, he was set to join England's Manchester United, but the club withdrew its option to sign him in December 2009. Instead, he joined Fiorentina for a reported fee of around €8 million in January 2010. In August 2013, after three years in Florence, Ljajić joined Roma for an €11 million fee, signing a four-year contract. In July 2016, he was sold to Torino. Ljajić was sent on loan to Beşiktaş in 2018, before signing with the Turkish side in 2019. He then joined Fatih Karagümrük in 2022. In September 2023, Ljajić signed with hometown club Novi Pazar. In August 2025, he left Novi Pazar and joined Bosnian side Sarajevo.
