United get clearance for Tosic

MANCHESTER UNITED have been granted a work permit for young Serbian winger Zoran Tosic (pictured above).

Alex Ferguson attended yesterday’s hearing for the 21-year-old and emerged with positive news, meaning Tosic will sign from Partizan Belgrade in January. United have not confirmed the fee they have agreed for Tosic, although they have been looking at the wide-man for some time.

Tosic has appeared 12 times for his country and can play on either flank, having also starred for Serbia’s U21 side.
