When Ilić joined Union on loan in the summer of 2024, he had already paved his career path in Serbia, Latvia, Norway and France.
What followed made him a key figure in Union Berlin, netting 7 goals in his first 16 Bundesliga appearances in the 2024-25 season.
His significance grew further last campaign, chipping in with 5 goals alongside 10 assists in 32 topflight games for the Köpenick club.
"Andrej has quickly developed into an important part of our team," said Horst Heldt, managing director of Union Berlin, upon the deal's completion.
"He possesses the qualities that characterise a modern striker: presence, assertiveness, goal threat, and at the same time the willingness to work for the team.
With his performances, he has earned the trust of the club. That is why we are very pleased that we can continue on this path together and rely on him in the long term."
