Biography
Starting his career with Montenegrin side FK Sutjeska Nikši?, Miodrag signed for Red Star Belgrade in 1983. Whilst there he helped the Serbian side win two Yugoslavian League championships and the Yugoslav Cup, as well as five international caps for Yugoslavia.
Signing for United for an estimated £200,000 in August 1988, it took Mio nearly two months to make his first appearance due to red tape and injury. He finally made his first team debut as a substitute in the League Cup semi-final against Aberdeen at Dens Park near the end of September. Originally used as cover for Paul Hegarty and Dave Narey, whilst also making appearances at full-back, the classy, versatile defender became a regular over the next two seasons, forming a partnership with fellow European defender Freddy Van der Hoorn, collecting a Scottish Cup runners-up medal after losing in the final against Motherwell in May 1991.
However, after a contract dispute with the Club, he did not turn up at Tannadice for the next season and threatened to quit football completely. He returned to Tannadice in March 1992 and signed a new deal. To regain match fitness, he played mainly in the reserves in 1992-93, but came into the starting eleven when called upon during the winter months, until he was transfer listed in April 1993. Mio was released a month later and joined Motherwell om July 1993, much to the annoyance of incoming United manager, Yugoslav internationalist Ivan Golac.
Mio spent three years at Fir Park, helping them finish third and second in the Premier Division, their highest League placings since the 1950s. In March 1996 he signed for Raith Rovers where he spent one season before moving on to Hamilton Academical, where he later took up a coaching role after retiring in 1998. Mio then returned to Motherwell in September 2001, spending a short time as caretaker manager. In June 2008 he was appointed youth coach at Celtic.

International Career (Yugoslavia) 
Caps: 5

International Debut: December 23rd, 1987 v. Turkey
The Red Star Belgrade defender had made his international debut in December 1987, against Turkey, and remained a regular in the Yugoslavian national team's line-up through 1988, with appearances against Wales, Italy and Germany. After signing for United in August that year, his debut for the club was held up due to registration problems. Meanwhile he played once more at international level, coming on as a substitute in a 2-1 win over Spain in Oviedo, six days before his debut for United as a substitute in the League Cup semi-final against Aberdeen.
