Ljubinko Drulović (Serbian Cyrillic: Љубинко Друловић; born 11 September 1968) is a former Serbian footballer who played as a winger, and a current coach.

He spent the most notable part of his playing career in Portugal, with stints at Porto and Benfica – ten seasons between the two teams combined, winning 14 major titles with the former.

Drulović represented the Serbian national team in one World Cup and one European Championship, gaining nearly 40 caps.

Drulović was born in Nova Varoš, Serbia, Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. After playing out his contract at FK Rad in the summer of 1992, he signed a two-year deal with Portuguese club Gil Vicente FC, but only played there until December 1993, after which he moved to the Primeira Liga with FC Porto; between both teams, he finished the 1993–94 season with a career-best 18 goals.

Drulović was one of very few players to have contributed to each of Porto's five consecutive titles during the 90s. He was mostly remembered at the side for his pin-point assists and ability to cross the ball, mainly to the head of Mário Jardel.
