Red Star‘s rising star, Kosta Nedeljković, is set to make a £9 million move to Aston Villa, marking a record-breaking transfer for the Serbian club. The entirety of this substantial sum will be a welcome addition to team’s coffers, representing a significant financial boost. This impending transfer surpasses the previous record held by Nemanja Radonjić’s move to Marseille for €12 million, though Red Star only received a fraction of that amount.
At just 18 years old, the talented right-back, Nedeljković, has been a product of team’s youth system, making his impending move to the Premier League giants even more significant. As part of the agreement, Nedeljković will complete the current season with Red Star on loan from Aston Villa. His breakthrough into the first team last summer showcased his immense potential, capturing the attention of various clubs, including the English top-flight side.
While all the terms have been settled, the official confirmation of this historic transfer is pending approval from the Red Star Board of Directors. The move signifies a new chapter for Nedeljković, who will look to make a lasting impact in the prestigious Premier League.
