In his country, Milovac represented FK Novi Sad (second division) and FK Vojvodina, helping the latter win the Yugoslavian championship in the 1988–89 season.
In January 1990, aged 28, he was allowed to leave the country and signed for S.C. Salgueiros in Portugal, helping the club promote to the top division in his first season. In the following campaign, the Paranhos outfit overachieved for a final fifth place, with the subsequent UEFA Cup qualification - a first-ever - with the player scoring three goals in 36 games; in five seasons of his seven 1/2 with the club, he shared teams with countrymen Sedomir Djoincević and Jovica Nikolić.
After the 1996–97, with Salgueiros nearly qualifying for Europe after finishing in sixth position, 35-year old Milovac retired from football, having appeared in nearly 250 official games for his main team.
Milovac is married to Andja, with the couple having one son, Stefan. After ending his football career, he settled in Portugal, owning and running a restaurant in Faro, Algarve.[1]
