Career as a club player

1953 Jovan Miladinović came to the youth of Partizan Belgrade. Four years later, the talented young player made his first appearance in the first division . As a midfielder, he scored ten goals in 107 games. In the sixties he was with Partizan at the side of players such as Milutin Šoškić , Ivan Ćurković , Zvezdan Čebinac , Milan Galić , Fahrudin Jusufi , Branislav Mihajlović , Branko Rašović and Velibor Vasovic in 1960/61 , 1961/62 , 1962 / 63 and 1964/65 four times Yugoslav champion and moved into the final of the European Cup in 1966 . Miladinović played his last round at his hometown club in 1965/66, in the league with the disappointing 11th place, but in the European Cup Partizan showed what the team was capable of, especially in the semi-finals against Manchester United (2-0, 0-1). Miladinović delivered a fight with Pat Crerand in the second leg on April 20, 1966 and was therefore suspended in the final against Real Madrid (1: 2). For the 1966/67 season, a number of Partizan stars got clearance for abroad and in addition to Miladinović to Nuremberg, goalkeeper Soskic also went to 1. FC Cologne, Galic to Belgium to Standard Liège, Jusufi to Eintracht Frankfurt and Vasovic to Ajax Amsterdam. Local rivals Red Star Belgrade lost the stars Vladimir Durković to Borussia Mönchengladbach and Dragoslav Šekularac to Karlsruher SC.

In the 1966/67 season he was in the squad of 1. FC Nuremberg , which had tried to strengthen the squad additionally through the additions of goalkeeper Horst-Dieter Strich , Wulf-Ingo Usbeck , Heinz Müller and Herbert Renner . At the end of the round one could only speak of a reinforcement of the "Club" with the previous A-class player Heinz Müller. The round began under coach Jenö Csaknady , compatriot Jenö Vincze took over from November 7th to December 31st, 1966, before the third coach, Max Merkel , came to Noris from defending champion Munich 1860 on January 1st, 1967, and managed to stay in Nürnberg . Miladinović made his debut on the start day of the round, August 20, 1966, in a 0-1 away defeat at VfB Stuttgart in the Bundesliga. He played on half right alongside the other offensive players Reinhold Adelmann , Franz Brungs , Heinz Strehl and Georg Volkert . In the Bundesliga chronicle it is noted: "New signing Miladinović disappointed, but was not worse than his fellow men." After his fourth Bundesliga game on September 24, 1966, after a 2-0 home win against Borussia Dortmund, the criticism was even more pronounced : "... although the FCN with Miladinović in midfield dragged along a total failure ...". The newcomer from Belgrade could not prevail in Nuremberg, not even under Merkel from January 1967, under whom he was only used on January 21 in a 2-0 away defeat at MSV Duisburg. He couldn't get past Karl-Heinz Ferschl , Stefan Reisch , Heinz Müller, Reinhold Adelmann and Tasso Wild and ended his contract with the “Club” after just one year.

Career as a national player

From 1959 to 1964 he played 17 times for the national team . He made his debut on October 11, 1959 in an international match against Hungary in a 2-4 home defeat. Florian Albert distinguished himself as a triple goalscorer on the side of the guest team, led by the two old masters Gyula Grosics and József Bozsik . Miladinovic ran as the right wing runner and Vladimir Durkovic and Stefan Bena came like him to their debut in the "plavi". On December 20, 1959, he was also a member of the national team at the friendly against Germany in Hanover. In front of 83,000 spectators, the selection teams parted 1: 1. National coach Sepp Herberger tried to win the game with high performers like Karl-Heinz Schnellinger , Herbert Erhardt , Horst Szymaniak , Helmut Rahn and Uwe Seeler . But the men around Branko Zebec, Željko Perušić and Miladinovic earned the draw.

His greatest successes were his participation in the finals of the European Championship in 1960 and in the soccer tournament of the Olympic Summer Games in 1964 . On July 10, 1960, he was in place of Branko Zebec in central defense at the final of the "European Cup of Nations" against the "sbornaja" of the Soviet Union. The team around captain Igor Netto and goalkeeper legend Lev Yashin prevailed 2-1 after extra time. At the Olympic Games in Tokyo in 1964, he lost the football quarter-finals on October 18 with 1-0 against the GDR team, which included experts such as Henning Frenzel (goal scorer), Jürgen Nöldner , Eberhard Vogel and Klaus Urbanczyk .

Coaching career

After the end of his career, he worked as a coach at Partizan Belgrade and temporarily headed the 1st team in 1976 and 1979.
