LONDON, Jan 2: Manchester United have agreed to sign Partizan Belgrade midfield duo Zoran Tosic and Adem Ljajic, the Premier League champions said on Friday.
Tosic, 21 and a Serbia international, will sign with immediate effect while an agreement is in place for 17-year-old Ljajic, who had a trial at United last year, to remain with Partizan for the rest of 2009, United said on their website.
No transfer fees were given but British media had speculated that United would pay a combined fee of around 16 million pounds ($23.31 million).
“Tosic joins us immediately, his work permit is through,” manager Alex Ferguson said.—Reuters
