Mihajlo Ilić

Mihajlo Ilić of Bologna was born in Jagodina, Serbia on 4 June 2003 (age 22).

Mihajlo Ilić, born on 4 June 2003 (age 22), is a Serbian central defender now with Bologna. A commanding 6ft 4in (1.92m), he fits the modern profile of a centre-half without the need to pretend he is already the finished article.

His senior career has been shaped mainly at Partizan. Across three seasons he made 27 league appearances and scored one league goal, with his busiest campaign coming in 2023-24, when he played 18 league matches and got that goal. That is where he built his first proper body of work, rather than just passing through.

Ilić is currently valued at around £3m by Transfermarkt. His career remains at an early stage: Partizan gave him his grounding, and Bologna is the next test.

The transfer history is the most revealing part of the profile: Bologna paid €3.9m to sign Ilić from Partizan in January 2024, then sent him back to Partizan on loan later that year before a further loan to Anderlecht in September 2025. That pattern suggests Bologna viewed him as a longer-term asset, but not one ready for regular Serie A minutes.
