Bio
Milos Degenek brings a wealth of experience and grit to the CommBank Socceroos back line.
Degenek began his professional career in Germany with VfB Stuttgart before making his breakthrough with 1860 Munich in the 2. Bundesliga. His performances earned him a CommBank Socceroos debut against England in May 2016, having previously represented both Serbia and Australia at youth level.
His club career has taken him across Europe and Asia, including spells with Yokohama F. Marinos in Japan and Red Star Belgrade in Serbia, where he competed regularly in European competition.
After re-establishing himself in the national team under Head Coach Tony Popovic, Degenek was selected for his third FIFA World Cup in 2026, having also been part of Australia’s squads in 2018 and 2022. His experience was again valuable as Australia progressed to the Round of 32.
