Georgi Hristov (Macedonian: Ѓорѓи Христов; born 30 January 1976) is a Macedonian former professional footballer who played as a striker.
Hristov represented Macedonia internationally between 1995 and 2005, amassing 48 caps and scoring 16 goals.
Born in Bitola, Hristov started out at his hometown club Pelister, making his Yugoslav First League debut at the age of 16. He would earn himself a transfer to Partizan in 1994, spending three years with the Crno-beli and winning back-to-back championships in 1996 and 1997. In June 1997, Hristov was sold to English side Barnsley for a club record fee of £1.5 million. He scored four league goals in his debut season with the Tykes as they suffered relegation from the Premiership. Over the next two seasons, Hristov missed a majority of games due to a knee injury, before eventually leaving on a free transfer. He subsequently joined Dutch club NEC in July 2000, finishing his debut season in Eredivisie as the team's top scorer with 15 goals.
In July 2003, following two injury-plagued seasons with NEC, Hristov completed a switch to Zwolle on a one-year deal with an option for a further year. He was forced to undergo another knee surgery in January 2004, causing him to miss the rest of the season. After half a year without a club, Hristov joined Scottish side Dunfermline Athletic in January 2005. He was, however, released by the Pars before the end of the season.
In September 2005, Hristov moved to Hungary and signed with Debrecen on a four-year deal. His contract was prematurely terminated by mutual agreement before the end of the same year. Between January and May 2006, Hristov played for Israeli Premier League club Hapoel Nazareth Illit in a failed attempt to save them from relegation.
At international level, Hristov was capped on 48 occasions for Macedonia, scoring 16 times. He netted a goal on his debut in a 2–2 draw against Armenia on 10 May 1995. His last cap came on 12 October 2005 in a 0–0 draw away against the Netherlands.
In October 2011, Hristov was appointed as manager of Metalurg Skopje. He resigned from his position in November 2012.
