Winger Tosic is one of Serbia's rising stars
|
Manchester United have completed the signings of Serbian pair Zoran Tosic and Adem Ljajic from Partizan Belgrade.
Left-winger Tosic and midfielder Ljajic arrive at Old Trafford for an undisclosed fee although reports suggest a combined figure of £16.3m.
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 - nicknamed Bambi because of his lean build - 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.
Tosic increases manager Sir Alex Ferguson's options on the left wing with Ryan Giggs and Nani already battling it out in that position although in recent weeks Ji-sung Park has also played there.
