Early career

[edit]

Born in Košice, Lalkovič spent his early career with Košice-Barca and MFK Košice before signing for English club Chelsea in 2007.[citation needed] He joined Doncaster Rovers in August 2010; Lalkovič made a total of six appearances for Doncaster before returning to Chelsea.[1]

Lalkovič signed a season-long loan deal with Dutch club ADO Den Haag in August 2011,[2] and a season-long loan deal with Portuguese club Vitória de Guimarães in July 2012.[citation needed] On 4 January 2013 Lalkovič was recalled by Chelsea as he was struggling to find regular playing time.[3]

On 15 July 2013, Lalkovič signed for Walsall on a six-month loan deal.[4] During this period, Lalkovič scored 4 times in 24 appearances. On 6 January 2014, Lalkovič extended his loan with Walsall until the end of the season.[5] On 23 May 2014, Chelsea released Lalkovič and made him available for free transfer.[6][7]

On 25 July 2014, Lalkovič signed a deal with Czech FK Mladá Boleslav.[8] Following the termination of his deal with the side, he completed a free transfer to League One side Barnsley on 8 January 2015, signing an eighteen-month contract.[9] Lalkovič made his Barnsley début coming off the bench in a 2–0 victory against Yeovil Town.[10] Lalkovič made seventeen appearances in total for the Tykes but was permitted to conclude his contract early at the end of the season.[11]

Walsall

[edit]

Lalkovič rejoined Walsall on 16 July 2015, signing a one–year deal with the Saddlers.[12] He scored his first goal in his second spell at Walsall in a League Cup tie against Brighton & Hove Albion.[13]

Portsmouth

[edit]

On 28 June 2016, Lalkovič signed a two-year deal with Portsmouth for an undisclosed fee after failing to agree a new contract with Walsall.[14] He scored his first goal for the club in a 5–1 win over Barnet on 24 September 2016.[15]

On 20 January 2017, Lalkovič joined Scottish Premiership side Ross County on loan for the remainder of the 2016–17 campaign.[16]

On transfer deadline day, Milan had his contract cancelled 6 months early by mutual consent.

Czech First League

[edit]

On 18 October 2018, Lalkovič joined Czech First League side Sigma Olomouc on a short-term deal until the end of the season.[17] After the season, he left Sigma Olomouc for FC Baník Ostrava.[18]

On 2 February 2021, Lalkovič joined fellow Czech First League side Příbram on a short-term deal until the end of the season.[19]

Return to England

[edit]

On 2 November 2021, Lalkovic returned to England, after signing for National League North side Boston United.[20]

In October 2024, following two years in Greece, Lalkovič once again returned to England, joining Northern Premier League Division One West club Stalybridge Celtic.[21] The following month, he joined National League North side Rushall Olympic.[22]
