Fans would know him best on field, donning the proud number 1 jersey. His abilities have also been recognised at international level, with Mitov having secured representation for the Bulgarian national team.
As per Transfermarkt, Mitov's current market value is valued approximately at £1.00m.
In August 2014, Mitov embarked on a fresh chapter in his football career, packing up his goalkeeper gloves and heading over to the Championship in England to join Charlton Athletic. Few short months later, in February 2015, he was spotted by Canvey Island, resulting in his transfer on loan to the Lower Leagues club. Once the loan time had lapsed, he returned to Charlton Athletic in June the same year.
July 2017 bore witness to yet another transfer in Mitov's career; this time he bid goodbye to Charlton Athletic to join the League Two team Cambridge United, situated in England. During his inaugural season (2022 - 2023) at Cambridge United, Mitov saw significant action, with 23 first team appearances in league matches.
In July 2023, he migrated north, transferring from Cambridge United to the Scottish Championship team, St Johnstone. During his one season stint (2023 - 2024) with St Johnstone, Mitov showcased his skills on 38 occasions, featuring in the first team's league matches.
By July 2024, Aberdeen from the Scottish Premiership offered Mitov another opportunity, which he seized, transferring from St Johnstone. His first season (2024-25) at Aberdeen witnessed Mitov stepping onto the pitch as part of the first team for 24 league matches; this number presently stands at 16 in the current 2025-26 season.
Since joining Aberdeen, the goalkeeper has accumulated a series of notable participations; including two starts in the League Cup 2025-26, two starts in the Europa League Qualifiers 2025-26, and five starts in the Conference League 2025-26. Beyond the domestic front, he has represented Bulgaria with three starts in the World Cup Qualifiers Europe 2024-26 and seven starts in the Nations League 2024-25.
