Southampton midfielder Dusan Tadic is backing their bid for Filip Djuricic. Saints are continuing discussions over the loan of Benfica midfielder Djuricic.
Serbia international Djuricic is already on loan at Mainz in Germany and has to have that deal cancelled first.
Tadic said: "Filip's a really good player and a really good guy - we play in national team together.
"He's having difficult time in Mainz, but he's a good age and a good player with quality.
"We didn't talk but I probably will talk to him today. I don't decide, but I think he would be good here."
