Danijel Bogdanović (Serbian Cyrillic: Данијел Богдановић; born 26 March 1980 in Misrata, Libya), more commonly spelled Daniel Bogdanović, is a Maltese professional footballer of Serbian and Slovenian descent who plays as a striker for Xewkija Tigers in the Gozo Football League.
Bogdanović spent six months with Cherno More during the second half of the 2002/2003 season in the A PFG.
In the 2006–07 season Bogdanović scored 31 goals, winning him the Golden Boot and also the Maltese Player of the Year.
Bogdanović joined Marsaxlokk for the 2006–07 Maltese season, and Marsaxlokk built a strong title challenge. With Marsaxlokk front-runners and the season drawing to a close, Bogdanović found himself well ahead in the goalscoring charts and scored the final goal in a 4–1 defeat of second-placed Sliema Wanderers. With this win, Marsaxlokk were crowned as league champions for the first time in their history. Bogdanović finished as the league's top goalscorer with 31 goals in 28 appearances, and ended the season one goal short of the record set by Danilo Dončić, who twice hit the 32-goal mark in a single season, first with Valletta during the 1996–97 season and then with Sliema Wanderers in the 2001–02 season.
Following Marsaxlokk's triumph in the Maltese Premier League, and the end of the player's one-year contract, Bogdanović decided not to renew and instead decided to search for a club elsewhere in continental Europe.
