Milko Djurovski (Macedonian: Милко Ѓуровски, also romanized as Milko Gjurovski, Serbo-Croatian: Milko Đurovski / Милко Ђуровски; born 26 February 1963) is a Yugoslav and Macedonian former footballer and current manager. He was regarded as one of the most talented Yugoslav players of his generation. Likewise, Djurovski is remembered for his eccentric behavior during his playing career that spanned for more than 25 years.
Djurovski started out at Red Star Belgrade, making his senior debut in 1979, aged 16. He spent a total of seven seasons in their first team, winning two national championships (1981 and 1984) and two national cups (1982 and 1985). In the summer of 1986, Djurovski made a surprising and controversial move to Red Star's bitter rivals Partizan. He stayed for four years at Stadion JNA, including an inactive season because of his compulsory military service. Some of his most memorable performances with the Crno-beli include a 1989–90 European Cup Winners' Cup tie against Groningen, which eventually secured him a transfer to the Dutch club in 1990. In his later years, Djurovski went on to play for several Slovenian clubs.
Internationally, Djurovski represented both Yugoslavia and Macedonia. He earned six caps for Yugoslavia between 1984 and 1985, scoring two goals. After the dissolution of the former country, Djurovski briefly played for his native Macedonia, making three appearances in 1994. He had previously won the bronze medal for Yugoslavia at the 1984 Summer Olympics.
