MANCHESTER CITY are reportedly on the brink of signing Manchester United target Filip Stevanovic from Partizan Belgrade.
The Red Devils were believed to be close to signing the Serbian winger back in August.

But with the move having fallen through, City are set to pounce.
According to the MEN, Pep Guardiola’s side will pay around £6million for the teenager.
It is not believed that Stevanovic, 18, will slot straight into City’s first-team squad – making an immediate loan likely.
He could return to Partizan for the remainder of the campaign.
But City have a number of clubs within their network that could benefit from Stevanovic’s burgeoning talents.
Mostly used as a left winger, Stevanovic has already made 53 first-team appearances for Partizan.
And the wide man has managed an impressive 12 goals and five assists.
This season he has featured ten times in the Serbian top flight and is a regular in the starting XI.

A Serbian youth international, Stevanovic has also already experienced playing European football in the Europa League.
And he has a domestic honour to his name, winning the Serbian Cup in 2019.
