Samir Handanović (born 14 July 1984) is a Slovenian former professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Italian club Inter Milan. During the course of the 2010–11 Serie A season, he saved a total of six penalty kicks, equalling an all-time league record set in the 1948–49 season. In 2012, he transferred to Inter Milan from Udinese for €11 million.
Having previously represented Slovenia's under-21 team, Handanović made his senior international debut in 2004. He has gone on to earn 81 caps for his country, the second-most appearances for Slovenia and most by a goalkeeper, and played for them at the 2010 FIFA World Cup. In 2014, the Daily Mail listed him as one of the ten best goalkeepers in the world. He is nicknamed Batman due to his acrobatic saves.
