Milan Iloski moves to Nordsjaelland
Iloski hit 22 goals last year for Orange County SC, who currently sit third in the USL Western Conference, four points off first-placed Sacramento Republic.
The Californian-born star will not join his new side until January 2024 after impressing again this term, registering 20 goal contributions in 29 appearances in all competitions.
Iloski will hope FC Nordsjaelland will progress to the knockout stages of the UEFA Conference League but The Tigers face a tough-looking group to qualify that also includes Turkish giants Fenerbahce, as well as former Champions League regulars Ludogorets and Slovakian side Spartak Trnava.
Speaking of his move, Iloski told The Athletic, “Yeah, it’s a dream come true. For me, being an American kid, I’ve always wanted to go to Europe and play in Europe.”
