English giants Manchester United have completed the signing of 17-year-old goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic from Serbian club FK Vojvodina.

After months of negotiations for the young promising shot-stopper, the Premier League club had announced that the terms have been agreed with the player back in May, but now the move has been officially finalised.

As part of the deal, the player will be loaned back to the Serbian side till the end of the season, and the club’s president Zoran Scepanovic is delighted with the transfer and confirmed that the young player will be trained under the supervision of the Red Devils’ coaches while he played for his home club.

Milinkovic, who is the club’s third signing this summer after Ander Herrera and Luke Shaw, is an under-17 international for Serbia.  He also has six appearances in the qualifying phase for the UEFA Under-17 Championship to his name where he kept three clean sheets for his side.
