Squad31 Aug 2026

A fracture rules Miloš Cvetković out for 99 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Mladost Lucani will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Market31 Aug 2026

Nikola Boranijašević agrees terms with Partizan

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Mladost Lucani people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Match29 Aug 2026

Jovan Ćirić breaks Novi Pazar hearts

Some goals win a match and some take one off somebody else. Jovan Ćirić scored in the 87th minute, Novi Pazar had already begun thinking about the journey home, and Mladost Lucani took the lot.

Transfer targets31 Aug 2026

No thanks: Quentin Ndjantou rejects the move

Mladost Lucani had done everything except persuade the man himself. He stays at Paris Saint-Germain, and the manager goes back to the drawing board with the money still in the bank.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Mladost Lucani

Vukašin Jovanović was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

The terraces31 Aug 2026

Mladost Lucani supporters have found a favourite in Jovan Ćirić

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 19-year-old it feels ownership of. Jovan Ćirić has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Match29 Aug 2026

At last: Mladost Lucani win one

5 matches without a win, and then this, against Novi Pazar. Relief is a strange noise in a football ground and it was the only noise at the end.

The dugout31 Aug 2026

Mateja Premović gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match29 Aug 2026

Mladost Lucani get the job done against Novi Pazar

A 1‑0 win over Novi Pazar, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Jovan Ćirić runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 39. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad24 Aug 2026

A fracture rules Miloš Cvetković out for 106 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Mladost Lucani will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Match19 Aug 2026

Mladost Lucani out of the cup

Cukaricki ended it 0‑1. The season narrows to the league now, and everyone in the ground knew it before the final whistle.

Market24 Aug 2026

Milan Joksimović asks to leave Mladost Lucani

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Match22 Aug 2026

No end in sight to Mladost Lucani's wait for a win

5 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Mladost Lucani has to find a result from somewhere.

Market24 Aug 2026

Mladost Lucani turn down Cukaricki for Nemanja Žunić

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Market24 Aug 2026

Crvena Zvezda join the queue for Nikola Boranijašević

Add another name to the list: Crvena Zvezda have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Nikola Boranijašević. The answer from Mladost Lucani has not changed — yet.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Mladost Lucani

Vukašin Jovanović and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Match22 Aug 2026

Veljko Kijevčanin’s goal not enough for Mladost Lucani

Veljko Kijevčanin scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to Spartak Subotica, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Miloš Cvetković breaks a bone — 113 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 113 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Ognjen Bondžulić, 19, plays like he has been here for years — 7.60

A mark of 7.60 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 19-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Salim Musah will not be coming to Mladost Lucani

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Werder Bremen is saying, and nobody at Mladost Lucani is enjoying the guessing.

Squad17 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Mladost Lucani

Vukašin Jovanović and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Door shut on Luka Đorđević

Mladost Lucani asked and Cukaricki said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match15 Aug 2026

Mladost Lucani come up short against OFK Beograd

OFK Beograd left with the points after a 1‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Market17 Aug 2026

Cukaricki watching Nemanja Žunić

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Mladost Lucani have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

The dugout17 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Dušan Puletić

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Dušan Puletić, and the manager let it.

Match15 Aug 2026

Mladost Lucani hit back inside 4 minutes

OFK Beograd held the lead for 4 minutes, which is not long enough to enjoy it. Mladost Lucani answered before the celebration had properly finished, and the shape of the afternoon changed with it.

Miloš Cvetković breaks a bone — 120 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 120 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Match8 Aug 2026

Mladost Lucani taken apart

0‑3 to Radnicki Nis, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Mladost Lucani

Vukašin Jovanović was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market10 Aug 2026

Business is business: Nemanja Petrović goes

Crvena Zvezda paid $79.0K and Mladost Lucani took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

Saša Stamenković gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Petar Bojić runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 19. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market10 Aug 2026

Milan Petrovic steps up from the Mladost Lucani academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Milan Petrovic has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Market10 Aug 2026

Mladost Lucani promote Strahinja Grujic from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Strahinja Grujic has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Mladost Lucani promote Nikola Babic from within

Squad3 Aug 2026

Vukašin Jovanović signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Vukašin Jovanović commits to Mladost Lucani for another 3 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Vukašin Jovanović in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Mladost Lucani this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad3 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Mladost Lucani

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Petar Bojić was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

Radnik Surdulica tell Mladost Lucani: Stefan Ranđelović is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Market3 Aug 2026

Still no ink between Mladost Lucani and Saša Stamenković

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Mladost Lucani, another week without a signature from Saša Stamenković.

Market3 Aug 2026

The clock runs on Veljko Kijevčanin's contract

49 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

Squad3 Aug 2026

9 new faces, and Mladost Lucani are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

A loan move for Denys Tvardovskyi is in the works

Mladost Lucani have made the call to Shakhtar. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

A loan move for Dimitris Kaloskamis is in the works

Mladost Lucani have made the call to AEK. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.
