It was team's first ever goal in European competitions.[8] Three months later, he scored his first league goal in a triumph over Rizespor.[9] He won his first title with Konyaspor, club's first trophy ever, on 31 May 2017, by beating İstanbul Başakşehir in the Turkish Cup final.[10]

Milošević played his 100th game for the team against Kahramanmaraşspor on 31 October 2018.[11]
