Club career

Having started his career with Hearts and Aberdeen, McMillan was signed by Celtic in June 2005. [2] However, he was released only months later for sporting a Liverpool-inspired haircut. [2]

Following his release from Celtic, McMillan found himself back at Hearts, but was released in the summer of 2013. [3] He then joined Airdrieonians on an amateur contract, playing with their under-20 side. [4] He made one appearance for The Diamonds, coming on as a substitute for Kyle Richford in a 2–0 cup defeat to Queen of the South. [5]

2021 Hong Kong match fixing scandal

In October 2021, Brian Fok offered bribe to fellow HKFC players McMillan and Jean Maciel to play an unfair match against Hong Kong Rangers. [6] However, McMillan and Maciel both rejected the offer and reported the matter to the club. In May 2023, the ICAC arrested 11 football players, including Brian Fok. [7]
