However, he Red Star lived its heyday at the beginning of the years 90 thanks to a wonderful generation of players, many of whom (8 of the 16 man squad for the finals of the European Cup) recalarían later in Spanish teams.

An important role in these years of success (87-92) I was going to have the entrance of Vladimir Cvetkovic to the club's management, because with a policy based on acquiring young talent and great coaches would get the coveted goal of lifting the European Cup. A transfer policy can be observed with the fact that during the five glorious years the team had five different coaches.
