Marko Lazetić (Serbian Cyrillic: Марко Лазетић; born 22 January 2004) is a Serbian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Eredivisie club Fortuna Sittard, on loan from AC Milan.

Club career

On 29 November 2020, at the age of 16 years and 10 months, Lazetić made his debut for Red Star Belgrade as an 76th-minute substitute for Richmond Boakye against Rad.[2] The home match finished as a 3–0 win for Red Star.[3]

On 27 January 2022, five days after his 18th birthday, Lazetić joined Serie A club AC Milan for a fee believed to be in the region of €4 million, signing a deal until June 2026.[4] He was assigned shirt number 22 and enlisted as a first team player.[5] He debuted for the first team on 19 April, in a Coppa Italia match against cross-city rivals Inter Milan, coming on as a substitute in the 86th minute.[6]

On 8 November 2022, Lazetić made his Serie A debut in a 0–0 away draw against Cremonese.[7] On 22 May 2022, as Milan won the scudetto on the last matchday of the Serie A season, he was awarded a winner's medal despite making no league appearances.[citation needed]

On 3 February 2023, Lazetić moved to Austrian Bundesliga club Rheindorf Altach on a six-month loan.[8][9]

On 24 August 2023, Lazetić joined Eredivisie club Fortuna Sittard on a season-long loan.[10][11]
