Nemanja Milunović (Serbian Cyrillic: Немања Милуновић, pronounced [němaɲa mǐlunoʋitɕ, - milǔː-]; born 31 May 1989) is a Serbian professional footballer who plays as a centre back for Železničar Pančevo.

Club career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Milunović made his professional debut with hometown club Borac Čačak, but saw little playing time.[2] He was then loaned to Mladost Lučani for the 2010–11 season; at the time the team played in the Serbia's second tier. Mladost Lučani returned to the Serbian SuperLiga the following season, during which Milunović played a total of 30 games and scored a total of six goals.[2] Eventually, Mladost Lučani purchased Milunović's contract from Borac Čačak.[2] At Mladost Lučani, Milunović was coached by Neško Milovanović.[2]

BATE Borisov

[edit]

In 2015, Milunović joined Belarusian team BATE Borisov in a 300,000 transfer from Mladost Lučani.[2] He played in the team's 2015–16 UEFA Champions League campaign under coach Alyaksandr Yermakovich. On 16 September 2015, he scored BATE's only goal in their first Champions League match that season, a 4–1 loss against Bayer Leverkusen.[3] Although BATE was last in their group by the end of the 2015 UEFA Champions League group stage, BATE's general secretary Andrei Vashkevich stated that Milunović was one of the team's most consistent players, even suggesting that he had a chance to be named the Vysheyshaya Liga's Player of the Year.[4] Milunović was subsequently named in the ideal team of the Belarus's Vysheyshaya Liga for two consecutive seasons.[2]

Red Star Belgrade

[edit]

After Milunović decided not to renew his contract with BATE Borisov, he signed a 2.5-year contract with Red Star Belgrade as a free agent in the 2018–19 winter transfer window.[5] He played in Red Star's 2019–20 UEFA Champions League campaign under coach Vladan Milojević.

Alanyaspor

[edit]

In June 2021, after his contract with Red Star expired, Milunović signed 2-year contract with Turkish side Alanyaspor.[6]

International career

[edit]

Milunović made his first appearance for the Serbia national football team under coach Slavoljub Muslin in a 2-1 friendly win over Cyprus in November 2016.[7]
