He started out at Red Star, with several loan spells, and made 25 appearances for the Belgrade club's senior team, but now it's time for a new challenge, for a new country.

Andrej Đurić, a young Montenegrin national team player, is a new player for Malmo, the current champion of Sweden.

The "Falconers" defender has signed a contract with the club, which is fighting for a place in the Champions League this summer, until 2029, while the transfer value has not been specified.

"I'm very happy, I've only heard positive things about the team and the club and I feel incredibly excited. I know I'm coming to the club with high ambitions, that's something that drives me and I grew up playing under pressure playing at Red Star," Đurić told the club's website.

Đurić won the Serbian double with Red Star Belgrade last season, while throughout his career he played on loan at Grafičar, Spartak Trnava, Novi Pazar and Domžale.

"I don't really like to talk about myself, I like to show who I am on the field. But I am a determined, aggressive defender who likes to get into duels and win the ball. At the same time, I want to be involved in the game and contribute with nice passes," Đurić introduced himself to the Swedish public.

Đurić was born 21 years ago in Belgrade, and has played two matches for the Serbian youth national team, but 17 months ago he decided to accept the call from Montenegro, more precisely from the then coach of our youth national team, Nikola Rakojević.

"He is a player who, despite his young age, has gained experience in several different leagues and has shown that he is capable of playing at a high level. We are very much looking forward to seeing him in Malmö," said Daniel Anderson, Malmö's sporting director.
