Zoran Tosic, Adem Ljajic Possibly Headed to Manchester

Back on the 26th of September, I published an article highlighting Partizan Belgrade’s up-and-coming playmaker Adem Ljajic and fellow midfielder Zoran Tosic. 

Two months later, Ljajic and Zoran have been linked with a move to Manchester United in articles in the Daily Mail and Mirror.

Recapping some of the observations made several months back, Ljajic is an excellent technician and can play in almost all attacking positions in the team.

The youngster is unquestionably one of the best talents to have emerged from Serbia in recent years.

He has all the qualities required of a complete, creative right winger or central attacking midfielder.

Yet, Ljajic’s progression at Partizan has been stunted by numerous attacking qualities present throughout the rest of the squad. Of particular note in this regard is 21-year-old Tosic, who is in the form of his life this season.

Nicknamed “Bambi” because of his slight physically build, Tosic has hit the back of the net eight times this term, the same number of goals he registered all of last campaign. Several of his goals have arrived from set-plays.

Tosic is becoming a specialist at dead-balls. But, his game is far richer than just being able to deliver a quality free-kick, as he is also capable of beating his man and whipping in clinical crosses with his sweet leg peg.

And for a final treat, this video compiles the best skills, and goals, from both rising stars, who could well be on the books at Old Trafford come the new year.
