Tadic excited "good friend" Djuricic now a Southampton teammate

Dusan Tadic has welcomed Serbia teammate Filip Djuricic to Southampton.

Tadic plays with Djuricic for the Serbia national team, and he believes he will prove to be an excellent addition to the squad, as they push for European qualification.

"He is my good friend and he is a good player," said Tadic.

"He is a number 10 and he knows how to play football. He had a little bit of a difficult period at Mainz, but he is a really good player.

"He is 23 years old. At Heerenveen he was really good and then he went to Benfica, where he did not so much.

"At Mainz it was similar, but he has potential and he has quality."
