termninja 5,290 Posted May 27, 2013 Author Share Posted May 27, 2013 Played the last game of the season against Spartak, scored the 1st goal and generally kicked ass. His very recent quotes published today after Partizan won 6th league title in the row which is the new record here while also reaching 25 titles like Red Star have "Benfica? We don't know yet." (a bit difficult to translate but kinda like he doesn't want to talk about it)"I didn't want to hear anything when it comes to offers while the season was still going on, now we have international games, after that, I will know when, what and how""I will not be staying at Partizan""It is a phenomenal feeling to win the title, and we were never touched with rumors that the club had sold the title. We knew that they had to find a way to distract us. I'm really happy, but also a bit sad I'm leaving. Thanks to the fans for being there for us until the end."

Leif 6,006 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 He really impressed me considering his age and small frame vs. that physical Belgium side the other night. He fluffed one shot which shoulda been a goal but he was one of the Serbia players trying to make things happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Gino 377 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 That's great news to me, I've been hoping Chelsea sign him and now it has been confirmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mufassir08 2,400 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 We could have used him right now,His speed and dribbling could have been an important asset,Oh well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Styles 9,790 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 We could have used him right now,His speed and dribbling could have been an important asset,Oh well!Two years playing in a good league for a strong team will do far more for his development than playing 20 minutes here or there every month at Chelsea would.

ulsterchelsea 3,221 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Lol any chance Chels might consider announcing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beepu 1,714 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Sounds like a good deal, he is only 19 so the experience would be good for him. Hopefully he can establish himself in the benfica first team and get some CL experience as well before coming back to Chelsea at 21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mufassir08 2,400 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Maybe this deal has something to do with matic returning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,984 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 He was one of Serbia's best player against Belgium the other day. Nice pace and technical ability.It's nice that he's going to a top side on loan like Benfica rather than Vitesse or some Championship side. That should do him wonders.

magic weeds 446 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 This a very good deal for both CFC and Benfica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Lol any chance Chels might consider announcing this?LOL don't get your hopes.Signing Lazar and loaning to Benfica is actually some pretty good business by the board. I wonder how much we paid for him though. Would be disappointed if we paid more than 10-12m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jype 6,398 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Nice, been keeping an eye out for this guy a while now and he's been impressive. A bit raw, but definitely bags of potential and two years on loan at a top club like Benfica would really do him a lot of good. Wasn't keen on him going there permanently if the plan was for us to eventually buy him once he's ready because we all know how hard it is to negotiate with the Portuguese top clubs but a loan would be perfect.Maybe something for Jose to announce in a couple of hours? The way this Partizan president spoke about it everything seems done and dusted already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reddish-Blue 2,513 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Sounds like a great deal. Bring in a talented prospect, loan him out to a solid footballing club..where he should be able to settle in with his Serbian friends and then bring him back when he's ready.If this kid fulfils his potential, we'll have a solid RW option in the coming years.
