Milan Ristovski (Macedonian: Милан Ристовски; born 8 April 1998) is a Macedonian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Super League club Bhayangkara Presisi and the North Macedonia national team.

Club career

Ristovski began his career with his hometown club Rabotnički Skopje where he made his professional debut, age 16, on 22 November 2014.[1] In February 2017 he was loaned to Rijeka in Croatia until June 2017, where he joined his older brother Stefan.[2] In July 2017, he was once again loaned to Rijeka with a buying option, this time for the entire season.[3] He made his Rijeka debut on 10 December 2017, when he came on as a substitution in the Croatian First Football League match against Slaven Belupo.[4]

After half-season loan with the club, in July 2021, he signed with Spartak Trnava on a three-year contract. Ristovski became the club's most expensive arrival, arriving from Rijeka for a further undisclosed sum.[5]

On 1 January 2024, Ristovski signed a long-term contract with Czech First League club Bohemians 1905.[6]

International career

Ristovski was capped for North Macedonia's under-17, under-19, and under-21 national teams.

He made his debut for North Macedonia national football team on 4 June 2021 in a friendly against Kazakshtan and scored his team's third goal in a 4–0 victory.[7]

Personal life

His older brother Stefan is also a professional footballer who plays for Dinamo Zagreb and North Macedonia national team.[8] Ristovski speaks Slovak fluently. He is a Christian.[9]
