Dimitar Mitov was born in Bulgaria on 22 January 1997 making him now 27 years old. He is a towering figure between the posts, standing at 6ft 2in (roughly 1.88m) and with a weight of around 11st 13lb (or about 76kg). Currently, Mitov plies his trade with Aberdeen, where he dons the coveted number 1 jersey. Beyond the boundaries of his club, Mitov has also had the privilege of representing his homeland Bulgaria on the international stage.
As of now, Mitov's market value is estimated to be approximately £425k, as per information provided on Transfermarkt. He also has quite some time left with the Dons as his contract with Aberdeen isn't due to expire until the end of June 2027, exactly 2 years and 9 months from now.
Mitov experienced the hustle of English football before making his way up north. He signed for Charlton Athletic in the English League One back in August 2014. His journey continued as he was loaned out to Canvey Island in the Lower Leagues in February 2015. However, by June 2015, Mitov returned to Charlton Athletic after wrapping up his loan spell with Canvey Island.
Further changes were in store for Mitov as he signed for Cambridge United in League One in July 2017. Despite being his debut season (2022-2023) with Cambridge United, Mitov made quite an impression. He successfully clocked up 23 first-team appearances in league matches that season.
In July 2023, Mitov was enroute to Scotland as he joined St Johnstone in the Scottish Premiership. He appeared in 38 first-team league matches, a testament to his consistent performance between the sticks, during the 2023-2024 season for St Johnstone.
Further establishing his presence in Scottish football, Mitov transferred from St Johnstone to Aberdeen in July 2024. The fee for his transfer remains undisclosed. As of now, in the 2024-2025 season with the Scottish Premiership side Aberdeen, Mitov has already enjoyed seven first-team appearances in league matches.
In addition to his club duties, Mitov also featured in the League Cup 2024-2025 with five starts for Aberdeen. When called upon for international duty, he played in four matches for Bulgaria in the Nations League 2024-2025.
