Miha Mevlja (born 12 June 1990) is a Slovenian professional footballer who plays for Russian club FC Rostov.
Club career
Mevlja first began his career in football with ND Gorica where he eventually spent four years with the first-team. His time with Gorica was largely unsuccessful as the team's positing in the domestic league progressively dropped and in the Slovenian Cup the club went out at the quarter-final stage in each of his four years. In the summer of 2013 Mevlja joined FC Lausanne-Sport on a free transfer, his first club abroad, and will compete in the Swiss Super League after signing a two-year contract.[1]
International career
He made his debut for the Slovenia national team on 5 June 2016 against Turkey.
