Zoran Tosic & Adem Ljajic join Man Utd

January 2, 2009

Manchester United have completed the signing of Partizan Belgrade duo Zoran Tosic and Adem Ljajic.

The Serbian duo will cost United approximately £16.3m, although the fee has not yet been confirmed.

The move had reportedly been held up by Tosic’s excessive pay demands but he has now completed his switch.

The 21-year-old goes straight into United’s squad while 17-year-old Ljajic will be loaned back out to Partizan.

Tosic, the highly rated youngster, is being signed as the replacement for Ryan Giggs. Nicknamed Bambi because of his lanky style, he has has appeared 12 times for his country and can play on either flank, having also starred for Serbia’s Under-21 side.

He will join countryman Nemanja Vidic at Old Trafford and wear the number 14 shirt while Ljajic will arrive back at United for the 2009/10 season.

Buy the official Zoran Tosic Manchester United home shirt for only £49.99.
