Andrej Kostić (Serbian Cyrillic: Андреј Костић; born 16 January 2007) is a Montenegrin professional footballer who plays as a striker for FK Partizan and the Montenegro national team.
Having completed his transfer to AC Milan in March 2026, he will officially become the player of AC Milan on 1 July 2026.[1]
Budućnost Podgorica
Kostić came through the youth system of Budućnost Podgorica. He was promoted to the senior squad in the 2023–24 season, receiving the number 23 jersey. On 10 December 2023, Kostić remained an unused substitute in a 3–1 away league win over Mladost Donja Gorica. He made his competitive debut on 10 March 2024, coming on as a second-half substitute for Petar Grbić in a 6–0 league victory against Arsenal Tivat. On 27 March 2024, Kostić signed his first professional contract with the club until January 2027.[2] He helped the side win the championship title in the 2024–25 season, contributing with four goals in 20 appearances.
Partizan
On 24 June 2025, Kostić completed his move to Partizan, penning a five-year contract. He was assigned the number 9 shirt ahead of the 2025–26 season. On 20 July 2025, Kostić made his league debut by replacing Jovan Milošević in the 63rd minute and scoring a late injury-time goal to seal a 1–0 away win over Železničar Pančevo.[3] He subsequently netted a brace after coming off the bench in a 7–2 away league victory against Napredak Kruševac on 10 August 2025.
AC Milan
Kostić and his breakthrough with Partizan had been closely monitored by the scouts of AC Milan since late 2025, and led to a transfer offer in March 2026. On 31 March 2026, Kostić was announced as Milan's first signing ahead of the summer 2027 transfer window. He is set to first join the club's Milan Futuro reserve team, with eligibility to play for the first team as well.[4] The transfer fee, reported to have been around €3.5 million + €4 million in variables, caused an angry reaction from FK Partizan's vice president Predrag Mijatović, who had not been involved in the negotiations and believed it to be way below the player's actual value.[5]
International career
At international level, Kostić helped Montenegro earn a spot in the 2025 UEFA European Under-19 Championship.[6]
