​Man City swoop for Red Star Belgrade brothers

Manchester City are in negotiations to sign Red Star Belgrade youngsters Luka and Ivan Illic.

According to the Sun, City are expected to finalise a deal by the end of this week, reported to be worth £4.8m for the pair.

Luka, 18, and Ivan, 16, have both made their first-team debuts for the Serbian giants.

Pep Guardiola plans on sending the pair back to Red Star until Ivan turns 18, accompanied with the guarantee that they will both play 50% of Red Star's matches.
