Career

Sydney FC

Milnaric came through the youth academy of Sydney FC and was identified as a highly talented defender from his performances in the National Premier Leagues NSW competition.[1] Sydney allowed Milnaric to travel to Croatia where he had a successful trial with Dinamo Zagreb.[2] Following his return to Sydney after being released from Dinamo Zagreb without securing a contract, Sydney agreed to loan him to Queensland A-League club Brisbane Roar in an effort to continue providing him with match time in a professional environment.[3]

Following the end of his loan spell with Brisbane, his contract at Sydney was not renewed, and he would sign a full-time contract with Brisbane Roar.[4]

Brisbane Roar

Mlinaric began his professional career with A-League club Brisbane Roar,[5] making his debut in the 2021-22 season. Mlinaric made 14 appearances for the Roar in all competitions before he was released on a free transfer in the January transfer window the following season.[6]

Oakleigh Cannons

Following his release from Brisbane, Milnaric moved to Victoria and signed with NPL Victoria club Oakleigh Cannons for the 2023 season.[7]
