After leaving Željezničar, Mihajlović tried to engineer a move to Red Star Belgrade, the team that he and his family supported since childhood,[2][3] though he ended up at Dinamo Zagreb where he arrived on initiative by manager Miroslav Blažević.

Mihajlović played for one season with the Zagreb-based club and was promoted to club captain by next manager Josip Skoblar, becoming the first Serb, although a Bosnian Serb, to become captain of Dinamo Zagreb.[3]
