Previously he has played with national teammate Goran Pandev in Internazionale, 2001/02, which won the youth league title. He was then loaned to lower-level teams in Italy to gain some experience but failed to impress Internazionale and his contract with them expired. Stojkov has since played in Poland, Belgium, Serbia, Hungary, and currently plays for Aarau in Switzerland. He joined FK Partizan in summer of 2006 and played with the club the first half of the 2006–07 season. Although he did not made any league appearance, he played one match in the Serbian Cup.[1] He is renowned for his speed and dribbling abilities.
He has represented his country on all youth levels before making his senior debut for Macedonia in an August 2002 friendly match against Malta in Skopje. He has earned a total of 42 caps, scoring 5 goals.[2] His final international was a November 2014 European Championship qualification match against Slovakia.[3]
