    Matko Miljevic: MLS terminates player following allegations of using false identity and ban rumors

    Major League Soccer Terminates Contract of Montreal Midfielder

    In a stunning turn of events, Major League Soccer (MLS) has made the decision to terminate the contract of Matko Miljevic, a midfielder for the Montreal team. Reports from Canada have surfaced alleging that Miljevic played under a fake name for an amateur team and was banned indefinitely for assaulting an opponent during one of their matches.

    The MLS cited “conduct detrimental to the league” and violations of his player agreement as reasons for its decision. The club confirmed that Miljevic is no longer part of their roster.

    This incident comes after weeks of speculation surrounding Miljevic’s involvement with a friend’s team in a Quebec amateur league. Frustrated with his lack of playing time at Montreal, it is alleged that he participated in three games under an assumed identity, scoring an impressive six goals.

    “Miljevic made eight substitute appearances for Montreal this season,” said head coach Hernan Losada who had previously announced an ongoing investigation into these claims.

    While this controversy certainly brings negative attention to both Miljevic and MLS, it also raises questions about transparency within professional sports organizations. Fans are left wondering how such deception went unnoticed for so long and what measures will be taken moving forward to prevent similar incidents.
