Aug 31 (Reuters) – Serbia defender Matija Nastasic left

Fiorentina for Manchester City for an undisclosed fee on Friday.

Montenegro defender Stefan Savic, 21, has joined the Italian

club as part of the deal, City said on their website

(www.mcfc.co.uk).

Nastasic, 19, moved to Fiorentina from Partizan Belgrade in

2011 and quickly established himself in the back four, a rare

bright spot in a disappointing season for the club.

He has twice been capped by Serbia, making his debut against

Cyprus in February.

Savic made 11 appearances for City, scoring once in the 4-0

win over Blackburn Rovers in October.
