Luka Stankovski (mk|Лука Станковски; born 2 September 2002) is a Macedonian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Serbian SuperLiga club Radnički 1923, on loan from Gaziantep.
Born in Skopje, Macedonia, Stankovski began his youth career at Vardar, before moving to Rabotnički in 2015.[1] He made his senior debut in the Macedonian First League on 31 August 2019, playing as a starter in a 2–1 defeat to Akademija Pandev.[2]

In February 2023, Stankovski moved to Slovenian PrvaLiga club Gorica on a temporary loan, as Gaziantep withdrew from the 2022–23 Süper Lig season due to the 2023 Turkey–Syria earthquake.[8]
