Haris Medunjanin was born 8 March 1985 in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia. He is a midfielder in Major League Soccer.
He started his professional career at AZ, who loaned him to Sparta Rotterdam in 2006. In 2008 he joined Valladolid, before signing with Maccabi Tel Aviv two years later.

Medunjanin made his Eredivisie debut on February 20, 2005, with AZ. During his three-year spell, however, opportunities were scarce. For the 2006–07 season, he was loaned to Sparta Rotterdam, being essential as the modest club finished 13th by scoring seven league goals. After another unassuming campaign in Alkmaar, Medunjanin was acquired by Spain's Real Valladolidin in August 2008.
In June 2010, Medunjanin signed a four-year contract with Maccabi Tel Aviv in Israel for €1.8 million. On August 31, 2012, Medunjanin signed with Turkish side Gaziantepspor on loan from Maccabi.
On August 12, 2014, free agent Medunjanin joined Deportivo La Coruña. Medunjanin helped Maccabi qualify to the Europa League group stage in his second season.
On January 31, 2017, Major League Soccer club Philadelphia Union signed Medunjanin to a two-year deal with an option for a third.
On December 5, 2019, aged 34, Mendunjanin joined FC Cincinnati. He scored his first goal for his new team the following 19 September, with a game-winning olympic corner kick against the New York Red Bulls.
Medunjanin represented the Netherlands at under-21 level, but in 2009 he decided to play for Bosnia and Herzegovina as a senior. His international career lasted until 2018, with the highlight being appearing at the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
