Milan Milanović (Serbian Cyrillic: Милан Милановић;[2] 31 March 1991) is a Serbian professional footballer, currently contracted with Italian Serie B club Palermo.
Career
After youth football experiences in his homeland of Serbia, Milanović moved to Russia to join Lokomotiv Moscow in 2008.[citation needed] In 2009 he was voted by the fans as the best player of Lokomotiv youth team,[3] and made his professional debut in 2010 with Russian Second Division feeder club FC Lokomotiv-2 Moscow.[1]
Palermo
In early 2011, after being released[citation needed] by Lokomotiv Moscow, Milanović agreed to join Serie A club Palermo; as the club had no more available spots for a non-EU signing from abroad, Milanović's signing could not however be officially formalized before the summer. In July 2011 he was officially included in the first team squad of Palermo, and was awarded the No. 15 jersey.[1]
On 31 August 2011 he moved on loan to Siena.[4] It is because Palermo did not wish to use its own non-EU quota and borrowed Siena's instead, likes Udinese registered Željko Brkić. In the document of Lega Serie A, Siena signed him from Moscow, and Siena paid Lokomotiv €270,000 as training compensation as required by FIFA regulation. (€90,000 times 3 seasons).[5] His "loan" was cancelled on January 2012, and he returned to Palermo by Palermo paying Siena the €270,000 plus €1.5 million to the agent. Again, Lega Serie A documented Palermo signed Milanović from Siena outright, not a loan return, likes Brkić also "signed" outright by Udinese in January 2012, as well as Luis Muriel from Lecce to Udinese. He made his Serie A debut on 24 March 2012, playing the full 90 minutes in a home league game against Udinese.
On January 2013 he moved on loan to Serie B club Vicenza.[6] He returned to Palermo by the end of the season, after Vicenza's relegation to Lega Pro Prima Divisione.
