Taseski was born in Melbourne, and is the son of Macedonian former footballer Ilija Taseski,[1] who played in the National Soccer League between 1985 and 1989.[2] Before beginning his senior career, Taseski played junior football at Noble Park, and also had short stints at VIS and South Melbourne.[1]
Taseski began his senior career with the Victorian Premier League club Altona Magic. He played a pivotal role in their side in the 2009 season, helping them to claim the championship and was awarded man of the match in the grand final.[3] After the 2009 VPL season, he signed with the Melbourne Victory as part of their youth squad,[4] and made seven appearances in total in the 2009–10 season.[5] He returned to Altona Magic for the 2010 VPL season, but shortly after the season started, he was signed by new A-League club Melbourne Heart.[3] He made his debut in a pre-season friendly against Premier League club Everton, which the Heart lost 2–0.[6] He made his A-League debut on 29 August with the Melbourne Heart, coming on as a substitute against Perth Glory.[7]
Taseski made his return to the VPL at the completion of the 2010–11 A-League season, as he and fellow Heart player Kamal Ibrahim were loaned out to South Melbourne by the Heart.[8][9] He scored on his début at South Melbourne, helping his side to a 6–4 win over Springvale.[9]
Taseski played for the Australian Under 20s during the qualification for the 2010 AFF U-19 Youth Championship. He played 3 times and scored a double against Cambodia in their 3-0 win.[10]
