Nicolas Milanović, an Australian native born on 14 November 2001, is a rejuvenated forward currently seen inflicting damage for Aberdeen from the left wing position. Standing 6 feet tall or 1.85 meters for those of the metric persuasion, and tipping the scales at 11st 13lb (76 kg), this 24-year-old has been a formidable presence on the pitch. A proud possessor of the number 11 jersey, Milanović has proudly represented the Australian national side too.
According to Transfermarkt, his current market value sees the decimal dance at the £510,000 mark.
Milanović's professional journey coursed its way through Australia before it touched the Scottish soil. He initially joined Western United in the National Premier Leagues in Australia in July 2020. In his debut season at Western United, Milanović made a modest start, gracing the first team with ten appearances in league matches. His follow-up season saw him replicate his appearances but also tasting his first goal. His tally improved in the subsequent season, with 15 appearances and four goals in league matches.
In February 2023, Milanović bid farewell to Western United and greeted Western Sydney Wanderers in the A-League in Australia. His debut season saw 11 appearances and a goal, but the next two seasons truly unfolded his potential. In season 2023-2024, he graced the team with 25 appearances and nine goals and followed it up with another 25 appearances but scoring 12 goals next season.
July 2025 saw Milanović charting course from Western Sydney Wanderers in Australia to Aberdeen in Scotland's Premiership. The Scots were asked to part with around £340,000 for his services. In the current season, Milanović has already made 13 first team appearances in league matches for Aberdeen.
His journey at Aberdeen also plunged him into various cups and leagues. He has seen action in League Cup 2025-2026 with a start, the Scottish Cup 2025-2026 with two starts, Europa League Qualifiers 2025-2026 with one start and one substitute appearance, and the Conference League 2025-2026 with three substitute appearances.
