INFO:

The greatest Bulgarian centre forward of the 70's and one of the best in general although he wasn't a prolific scorer. A typical striker of the British type, Milanov was good in the air and gave no quarter to anybody too. Good headers, goal scoring ability, menacing presence in the penalty area. Strong in the air, constantly in the penalty area, keeping defensemen on tiptoes, and very able to keep his own ground in the typical pushing and shoving of 1970s. Very strong, sometimes 3 defenders had to mark him and still he was capable of outmuscling all of them, excellent in aerial play, robust with high energy freeing space for teammates with his strength. He shoots equally well with both feet and head and is a real threat to the opponent's goalkeepers. 5 seasons with the team "Levski". Club Footballer of the period 1973 - 1978 year. There are 110 games with the team "Levski" (for the championship, national cup and European tournaments) and has scored 55 goals (an average of 0.5 goals per game)!
