'''Hristo Georgiev Yovov''' ({{lang-bg|Христо Георгиев Йовов}}); (born 4 November 1977) is a Bulgarian former professional [[association football|footballer]] who played as an [[attacking midfielder]]. He spent all of his club career in his native Bulgaria with the exception of his three shorter stays abroad with German club [[TSV 1860 Munich|1860 Munich]] and Cypriot sides [[Aris Limassol F.C.|Aris Limassol]] and [[Apollon Limassol]]. He made 29 appearances scoring 5 goals for the [[Bulgarian national football team|Bulgaria national team]] between 1998 and 2007.
 
Yovov started his career with [[PFC Levski Sofia|Levski Sofia]]. In 1998, he moved to [[Bundesliga]] club 1860 Munich. After playing little in one season and a half, he returned to Bulgaria joining [[PFC Lokomotiv Sofia|Lokomotiv Sofia]] on loan for the second half of the 1998–99 season. He signed with [[PFC Litex Lovech|Litex Lovech]] where he scored 47 goals in 96 matches over four-and-a-half seasons. Halfway through the 2004–05 season he began a second, three-year stint at Levski Sofia. He spent the second half of the 2007–08 season and the first half of the 2008–09 seasons in Cyprus, with Aris Limassol and Apollon Limassol. In 2009 he returned to Levski Sofia once more playing three-and-a-half seasons before retiring in summer 2013.
Line 92:
Yovov became a [[Bulgarian A Professional Football Group#Champions|Champion of Bulgaria]] in 2009. On 21 July 2009, Yovov opened his goal account for the new 2009–10 season in the second match of the second qualifying round of the [[UEFA Champions League|Champions League]], where Levski beat [[UE Sant Julià|Sant Julià]] away, 5–0. On 18 December 2009, Yovov scored the winning goal in a game against [[S.S. Lazio|Lazio]] in a [[2009–10 UEFA Europa League|UEFA Europa League]] match.
 
In the 2009–10 season, Levski achieved qualifyingqualification for the [[2010–11 UEFA Europa League|Europa League]] by finishing third in the final league table. During the season, Yovov finished as topscorer for Levski with 13 goals in all competitions.
 
Levski started the 2010–11 season with a match against [[Dundalk F.C.|Dundalk]] in a second qualifying round for [[2010–11 UEFA Europa League|Europa League]]. Levski won the first match and the result was 6–0, with Yovov scoring in the 11th minute, Levski's first goal.

During the 2011–12 season, Yovov continued to be first choice for Levski, managing 8 goals in 23 A PFG appearances, but was [[sent off]] on two occasions – on 15 March 2012, in a [[Bulgarian Cup]] match against Lokomotiv Plovdiv, and on 2 April in a championship game against [[PFC Ludogorets Razgrad|Ludogorets Razgrad]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://int.soccerway.com/players/hristo-yovov/68511/|publisher=soccerway.com|title=Hristo Yovov match log|accessdate=15 May 2012}}</ref>
 
On 19 July 2012, Yovov played for Levski in the 1–0 home win over [[FK Sarajevo]] in a Europa League match and thus became the player with the most appearances for Bulgarian teams in European competitions, surpassing the record set by former Levski teammate [[Elin Topuzakov]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://stigabe.com/index.php?t=77534/|archive-url=https://archive.istoday/20130204092219/http://stigabe.com/index.php?t=77534/|url-status=dead|archive-date=4 February 2013|publisher=stigabe.com|title=Йовов стана играчът с най-много участия за български отбори в евротурнирите|accessdate=30 October 2012|language=Bulgarian}}</ref> Yovov has participated in 66 matches for Bulgarian teams in European club tournaments (50 with Levski and 16 with Litex Lovech).<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://football24.bg/novina/82628-jovov-schupi-nov-rekord/www.slivnishki-geroi.com|publisher=football24.bg|title=Йовов счупи нов рекорд|accessdate=30 October 2012|language=Bulgarian|date=20 July 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160116020302/http://football24.bg/novina/82628-jovov-schupi-nov-rekord/www.slivnishki-geroi.com|archive-date=16 January 2016|url-status=dead}}</ref> His milestone was itself eclipsed on 4 October 2018 when both [[Svetoslav Dyakov]] and [[Cosmin Moți]] played in Ludogorets' 0:1 away loss against [[FC Zürich]] in the [[2018–19 UEFA Europa League group stage|group stage of the UEFA Europa League]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://dariknews.bg/regioni/razgrad/ludogorec-zagubi-v-ciurih-s-gol-v-kraia-na-macha-2123763|publisher=dariknews.bg|title="Лудогорец" загуби в Цюрих с гол в края на мача |accessdate=11 October 2018|language=Bulgarian|date=4 October 2018}}</ref> On 6 May 2013, in the 2–1 home win over Minyor Pernik, Yovov made his 300th A PFG appearance.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://topsport.ibox.bg/material/id_797313862|publisher=topsport.bg|title=Левски" продължава да мечтае след уникална драма с "Миньор", вездесъщ холандец носи нов успех на "сините"|accessdate=6 May 2013|language=Bulgarian | date = 6 May 2013}}</ref>
