Aberdeen winger Nicolas Milanovic has re-joined Western Sydney Wanderers for an undisclosed fee, signing a three-year contract just over a year after he left the A-League club to move to Pittodrie. The 24-year-old made the switch to Scotland last summer, bringing with him a big reputation, but he struggled to establish himself and made just 10 starts for the Dons without scoring. "Milanovic is a great lad, I got on really well with him," head coach Stephen Robinson said.

Nicolas Milanovic says a return to Western Sydney Wanderers from Aberdeen "just felt right" after a disappointing season with the Scottish Premiership club. The 24-year-old winger has been sold back to the A-League outfit, for whom he won the Johnny Warren Medal - awarded to the league's player of the year - two seasons ago. "This club has always meant a lot to me and I'm incredibly proud to be back representing Western Sydney," Milanovic told the club website.
