Veljko Ilić (Serbian Cyrillic: Вељко Илић; born 21 July 2003) is a Serbian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for the Serbian SuperLiga club FK TSC.

Club career

Ilić started training football with the youth academy of Radnički Obrenovac, and continued them with the youth categories of Red Star Belgrade for four years.[2] He spent several months on loan at FK IMT in 2021, and then moved to FK TSC.[3] During the summer of 2022, they planned that he would go on loan to Loznica. Due to the injury of Nikola Bursać, Ilić got the opportunity at the beginning of the competitive 2022–23 season.[4] He established himself in front of his team's goal, and at the beginning of 2023 he extended his contract with TSC.[5]

International career

Ilić received an invitation to the Serbia U19s for the " Stevan Vilotić Ćele" Memorial Tournament in 2021.[6] He made his debut against his peers from Montenegro, replacing Marko Ćopić in front of the goal after one hour of play.[7] The head coach of the Serbia U21s, Goran Stevanović, sent Ilić an invitation for a friendly match with Bulgaria in September 2022.[8]
