Persebaya Set to Boost Attack with Montenegrin Striker Mihailo Perovic
Persebaya Surabaya is on the verge of finalizing a deal with Montenegrin striker Mihailo Perovic ahead of the 2025-26 season. Both parties have reportedly reached an agreement, with the official signing expected soon. Perovic is anticipated to strengthen the team’s front line and potentially fill the void left by Flavio Silva, offering a fresh attacking option for the squad known as Bajul Ijo.
Perovic had an impressive 2024-25 season with FK Jezero, scoring 16 goals and finishing as the second-highest scorer in the Montenegrin league. The 28-year-old forward brings international experience, having competed in the UEFA Europa League with Zorya Lugansk, where he faced clubs like Leicester City, SC Braga, and AEK Athens. His background also includes appearances for Montenegro’s youth national teams.
The player’s recent social media activity, such as following Persebaya’s official account, has fueled further speculation about the move. His track record and goal-scoring ability suggest he could make an immediate impact in the Indonesian league. Standing at 180 cm, Perovic combines physical presence with finishing skills that could enhance Persebaya’s offensive dynamics.
Perovic’s arrival would continue a trend of Balkan players at the club, joining a list that includes Dime Dimov, Dejan Tumbas, Milos Raickovic, and Risto Mitrevski. This regional connection is expected to support stronger team chemistry and cohesion under coach Eduardo Perez. With this transfer, Persebaya aims to build a more competitive and cohesive unit for the upcoming season.
