Born in Sanski Most, SR Bosnia and Herzegovina, at the time part of Yugoslavia, Milinković started playing with local side Radnički Zdena.[1] Just before the Bosnian War started, he moved to Serbia and played with FK Bečej. He was spotted by Spanish club Lleida that signed him in 1993. He moved to Almería two years later where he had a short spell. He moved twice more to two other clubs on the Iberian Peninsula where he had similarly short spells, namely Ourense and Portuguese clubs Chaves and Alverca. In 2001, he signed with Austrian club Grazer AK where he spent four seasons and effectively retired from professional football with ASK Schwadorf.[2] He ended his career at Austrian lower league side USV Markt Hartmannsdorf.[3]
Milinković is the father of footballers and Serbia internationals Sergej Milinković-Savić and Vanja Milinković-Savić and basketball player Jana Milinković-Savić.[4]
