Manchester City have agreed a deal to sign Montenegrin-born Serbia forward Slobodan Tedić.
Tedić burst into the FK Čukarički first team last season and has established himself this time out as one of the club’s main goalscorers.
Four goals in nine appearances have seen the teenager earn admiring glances from sides all over Europe, but Nenad Mirosavljević, director of football at the Belgrade club, has revealed that the striker will go to City in January.
“He’s been on City’s radar for a long time, with scouts often coming to see him,” Mirosavljević said.
“There have been game where we didn’t even know they were in the stands. They watched all of his games, his every move, which is quite normal for the world’s biggest clubs.
“When they officially contacted us, we easily and quickly agreed.
“This is a confirmation of our good work, but also the best possible marketing for Cukaricki, and for Serbian football in general”.
