Man City confirm Nastasic deal with Savis going to Fiorentina

Manchester City have signed Matija Nastasic from Fiorentina with Stefan Savic heading the other way.

The deal sees 19-year old Serbian defender Nastasic arrive at City for £12million as well as Savic departing to join La Viola in Florence.

Nastasic comes to the Etihad Stadium with massive wraps as many see him as the long-term replacement for Manchester United's Nemanja Vidic in the Serbian national team.

Savic joined City from Partizan Belgrade last summer but struggled in his debut season with the English champions swiftly offloading him after just 12 months.
