Marko Ilić (Serbian Cyrillic: Марко Илић; born 3 February 1998) is a Serbian football goalkeeper who plays for Sarpsborg 08 FF on loan from Colorado Rapids.[2]

Club career[edit]

Vojvodina[edit]

Born in Novi Sad,[3] Ilić passed Vojvodina youth school[4] and joined the first team during the 2015–16 Serbian SuperLiga season at the age of 17.[5] He was used as a reserve option sitting on the bench a couple of times until the end of a season, without official appearances. He spent a short part of his career on loan at Serbian League Vojvodina side Cement Beočin.[1][6] Having spent first half of the 2016–17 season serving as a youth team first choice keeper, and a senior team backup keeper, in the second half of the season Ilić was sent on loan to Proleter Novi Sad.[7] In summer 2017 he returned to the first team,[8] being licensed with Vojvodina for the 2017–18 UEFA Europa League qualifications and the domestic competitions.[9][10] On 8 December 2017, Ilić signed his first professional contract with the club, penning a three-year-deal.[11] Ilić made his debut for Vojvodina in a 6–1 away win over Čukarički on 17 May 2018.[12]

Voždovac[edit]

On 2 August 2018, Marko Ilić signed a three-year-deal with Voždovac.[13]

Kortrijk[edit]

On 10 September 2020, Ilić signed a four-year contract with Kortrijk.[14] One month after signing the contract, in December 2020, Ilić was named Player of the Month.[15]

In September and October 2021, Ilić was named Player of the Month by the votes of the fans.[16][17]

Colorado Rapids[edit]

On 17 February 2023, Ilić was loaned to Major League Soccer club Colorado Rapids for their 2023 season.[18]

On 15 July 2023, Colorado Rapids made the transfer permanent and signed a two-and-a-half contract with Ilić.[19]

International career[edit]

Youth[edit]

Early in his career, Ilić was a member of the Serbian under-16, under-17 and under-18 national team selections.[20][21] In September 2016, he made his debut for the Serbian under-19 team, being elected for the best goalkeeper of the memorial tournament "Stevan Vilotić - Ćele".[22] Ilić was also invited in the squad for the 2017 UEFA European Under-19 Championship under coach Milan Obradović, where he appeared as the first choice keeper.[23]

Senior[edit]

He made his debut for Serbia national football team on 7 June 2021 in a friendly against Jamaica, and he did not concede a goal in the half he spent on the field.[24] After his debut, during 2021 and 2022, Ilić received several invitations to the national team, but he remained on the bench as a reserve goalkeeper.[25][26]
