Aberdeen are closing in on a deal for Serbian defender Slobodan Rubezic from FK Novi Pazar, according to reports. The 6ft 4in defender was the key man at the back for his club last term as he enjoyed his breakthrough campaign staring all-but-two of Novi Pazar’s league games.
The 23-year-old captained the side at times during the season that saw them finish sixth in the table just 12 months on from narrowly avoiding the drop from the Serbian Superliga.
His form has put clubs across Europe on alert but Aberdeen boss Barry Robson has convinced the centre-back that the Scottish Premiership is right choice, state the Press and Journal.
The report states the Dons are "willing to pay a significant six-figure fee upfront to take Rubezic to the Granite City" this summer amid interest from clubs across Europe.
