Denni Avdić (born Deni Avdić on 5 September 1988 in Huskvarna) is a Swedish footballer who plays as a striker for AIK in the Swedish Allsvenskan. He grew up in Huskvarna, where he played for Husqvarna FF. He has played one game for the Sweden national football team.
When Avdić was 15 years old he was signed by Danish Superliga club Brøndby IF. He played for Brøndby's reserve team in the Danish 2nd Division East – the third tier of Danish football – but did not play any senior games for the club. In 2006, Avdić was released by Brøndby, as he wanted to live closer to his family in Sweden, and he was picked up by IF Elfsborg in the Swedish Allsvenskan championship. When he was signed by Elfsborg, he was praised by Elfsborg officials as one of the greatest talents in Swedish football.
Avdić made his debut for Elfsborg in November 2006. He played from the start in Elfsborg's first ever Royal League match, and scored two goals in the 4–0 win over AIK. In the 2010 season of the Allsvenskan, Avdić changed position from attacking-midfielder to striker, his previous position as a youth player. The results were that he scored 19 goals in the whole season which gave him a second place on the Allsvenskan top-scorer 2010, after Alexander Gerndt who ended up on 20 goals. Due to his spectacular performance he was sold the same season for a transfer fee of 2 million £ to Werder Bremen.
On 3 January 2011, Avdić became Werder Bremen's first new signing of the winter, as confirmed by the website of the German Bundesliga club. He signed a contract until summer 2014. He featured only on rare occasions for the team during the 2011–12 Bundesliga season. due to his repeating injuries. Before his loan to PEC Zwolle, Avdić played seven games in Bundesliga and 12 games for Werder's second team without scoring a single goal.
