Club career

Born in Gabrovo, Ivanov began his football career playing for his hometown club Yantra at the age of six.[2] In 2012, he joined Levski Sofia's youth academy. His first involvement in the first team was after coming on as a substitute and scoring the winning goal in a friendly game against Lazio on 23 May 2014, which finished 3–2.[3]

Ivanov made his competitive debut for Levski at the age of 16 years and 10 months, in a 0–0 home league draw against Montana on 2 March 2016, coming on as a substitute for Miki Orachev.[4] He began to establish himself in the Levski first team from the 2018–19 season, making 11 starts.

On 4 May 2019, Ivanov scored his first league goal in a 3–1 away win against Botev Plovdiv. He ended the season with four goals in 20 appearances in all competitions.

Ivanov continued his progress during 2019–20, becoming a regular in the midfield as a right winger. His form led to him being named Best Progressing Player in the Bulgarian First League for 2019.[5] Over the course of the domestic campaign, Ivanov contributed 9 goals and 5 assists for the club.

On 9 December 2020, Stanislav joined Major League Soccer club Chicago Fire. He signed a two-year contract with an option for a further year, taking effect from 1 January 2021.[6][7] He made his debut for Chicago on 21 July 2021, coming on as a substitute in their 2–2 draw against D.C. United.[8]
