Club career edit
Mitreski was born in Struga. In early 2005, he was recognized as a featured member of Bayern Munich and later was near to signing for Portsmouth.[citation needed] On 6 November he was suspended from the first team from Energie Cottbus. On 9 January 2009, he was loaned out to the Belgian team Germinal Beerschot.[1]
One year later, in January 2010, Bulgarian CSKA Sofia signed Mitreski to a two-year deal for a €300,000.
Mitreski and CSKA Sofia mutually agreed to terminate Mitreski's contract as he was no longer in their plans and Mitreski no longer had the desire to play for CSKA Sofia.
Mitreski signed a two-year deal with Neftchi Baku from Azerbaijan on 9 July 2010.
International career edit
Mitreski made his debut for the Macedonian national team in 2001 in a friendly game against the Czech Republic, and has earned 70 caps in which he scored one goal.[2] His final international was an October 2011 European Championship qualification match against Armenia.[3]
