Bilalovic joins Slovakian side MSK Zilina on loan

Aberdeen winger Kenan Bilalovic has joined Slovakian top division side MSK Zilina on a season-long loan. The 21-year-old Swede has struggled to establish himself at the Dons since arriving at Pittodrie from IFK Värnamo in his homeland on a five-year deal last summer. He has made 19 appearances for the first team and scored three goals. On his loan to MSK Zilina, head coach Stepehn Robinson told the Aberdeen club website "Kenan is a talented young player but, at this stage of his development, playing consistently at senior level is really important. "His exposure to game time here is going to be limited this season and, therefore, this loan presents an excellent opportunity for him to gain regular minutes in a demanding environment. "We'll continue to monitor his progress closely throughout the season and look forward to seeing how he develops during his time in Slovakia."
