Nicholas Bilokapic (born 8 September 2002) is an Australian professional soccer player who plays for EFL League One club Peterborough United as a goalkeeper.[3]

Club career

[edit | edit source]

Bilokapic began his career with Sydney United 58.[4] He initially started as an outfielder with Sydney United 58 and first played as a goalkeeper at the relatively late age of 15.[5] Bilokapic moved to English club Huddersfield Town in 2020, where he made his senior debut on 8 January 2022 in the FA Cup in a 2–1 win against Burnley.[6] He moved on loan to Hartlepool United on 31 January for the remainder of the 2021–22 season.[7][8]

Bilokapic transferred to Peterborough United in July 2023, for an undisclosed fee.[9] After making errors in a derby game, he was supported by Peterborough manager Darren Ferguson.[10]

On 4 November 2023, Bilokapic made two major errors in a first round FA Cup game at home against Salford that both resulted in goals. The game ended 2-2 and Ferguson expressed unhappiness with the goalkeeper, saying the mistakes had been "momentum killers".[11]

On 6 May 2025, Peterborough announced the player had been transfer listed.[12]

International career

[edit | edit source]

On 6 September 2019, Bilokapic made his Australia under-17 debut in a 3–2 defeat against England under-18s.[4] He was selected as part of the Australia squad for the 2019 FIFA U-17 World Cup, however Bilokapic failed to make an appearance at the tournament.[2]

In March 2022, Bilokapic was called up for an U23 Talent Identification Camp for Australian players based in the United Kingdom and Europe.[13] He played for the U23 side that finished third in the 2023 Maurice Revello Tournament.[14]
