Ivan Tomić (Serbian Cyrillic: Иван Томић; born 5 January 1976) is a Serbian football manager and former player.

After coming through the youth categories of Radnički Beograd, Tomić joined Partizan in the summer of 1993, aged 17. He made his debut for the club during the 1993–94 season, as the club won the double. Tomić made a couple of appearances in his first two seasons as a senior, before becoming a first team regular in the 1995–96 season. He subsequently became one of the club's key players, scoring 10 league goals in the 1996–97 season. After the departure of Dragan Ćirić to Barcelona in the summer of 1997, Tomić became the club's captain, aged 21, leading the team to the national cup success in the 1997–98 campaign.

In the 1998 summer transfer window, Tomić was transferred to Italian club Roma. He struggled to become a first team regular under both Zdeněk Zeman and Fabio Capello. In July 2000, Tomić was loaned to Spanish club Alavés. He finally found his old form, helping the club to reach the 2000–01 UEFA Cup Final, eventually lost 4–5 to Liverpool in a remarkable game. Tomić subsequently returned to Roma, still failing to make an impact at the club. In January 2003, Tomić was again loaned to Alavés until the end of the 2002–03 season. He failed to help them avoid relegation from the top flight. After the end of his contract with Roma, Tomić signed a one-year deal with Rayo Vallecano, another club that suffered relegation in 2003.
