Sanel Kuljić (born 10 October 1977 in Salzburg) is an Austrian footballer of Bosnian descent, who played as a striker.
His father emigrated to Austria from SR Bosnia and Herzegovina in the 1970s.
Kuljić started his professional career in Salzburg but made his name at Austrian Football First League SV Pasching with whom he won promotion to the Austrian Football Bundesliga in 2002. He repeated that feat with SV Ried in 2005, when he also became 2nd division top goalscorer. In 2006 he became league top goalscorer and subsequently moved abroad to join Swiss side FC Sion but controversially returned to Austria after one year when he signed for Vienna giants Austria Wien.
Sanel Kuljić left FK Austria Wien for newly formed Austrian second-division side FC Magna Wiener Neustadt – who are acquiring the playing licence of SC Schwanenstadt for the 2008/09 campaign – and is joined by Austria Wien team-mates Yüksel Sariyar and Saso Fornezzi.
On 25 November, Kuljić scored four goals and his team Wiener Neustadt beat LASK Linz 4:1.
He made his debut for Austria in an August 2005 friendly match against Scotland and has earned 20 caps, scoring 3 goals. Kuljic had become a regular in the national teams squad but was surprisingly overlooked for EURO 2008.
