Josip Radošević (born 3 April 1994) is a Croatian footballer who plays for Austrian club Red Bull Salzburg and the Croatian national team as a defensive midfielder.
Radošević started his career playing at youth level for his hometown club Hajduk Split. The talented midfielder was promoted to Hajduk's senior side in November 2011. On 23 November 2011, he made his debut for the first team in a 1–0 win over NK Zagreb in the quarter-finals of the 2011–12 Croatian Cup. In season 2011-12, Radošević started featuring as a regular in Hajduk first eleven, after Mišo Krstičević, who had previously coached Radošević in Hajduk Split youth team, was appointed as the new manager. In 2012-13 he established himself as the key player in defensive tasks in Hajduk midfield, appearing in 17 domestic league games before being transferred to SSC Napoli.
On 29 January 2013, Radošević was loaned to Serie A side Napoli for a fee of €2 million euros. He will be on loan until this summer when Croatia becomes a part of the EU so he won't be a foreign player when he signs his contract in the summer. Hajduk Split will get another €1 million euros when he completes his transfer. On 25 August 2013, he made his official debut for Napoli in the first round of the 2013–14 season against Bologna, coming on as a substitute for Gonzalo Higuaín in the 84th minute.
On 4 February 2015, Radošević was loaned to Rijeka until 31 December 2015. He scored his first goal for the club in a dramatic fashion, when he scored an equaliser in the fourth minute of stoppage time against Dinamo Zagreb on 4 April 2015.
