Uros Nikolic, 185cm, is set to join up with Maccabi Tel Aviv’s squad in the next few days from Belarussian side Dinamo Minsk where he spent the last couple of years. The Belgrade born attacking midfielder who is a product of Partizan’s Youth Academy, made his senior debut for Hungarian outfit Videoton in 2012 before returning to Serbia and joining Jagodina in 2015.

Nikolic, who will celebrate his 25^th birthday later this month, represented his country at U19 and U23 levels – scored 14 goals and added 15 assists in 72 appearances for Dinamo Minsk.

Maccabi CEO, Ben Mansford, told the clubs’ official website: “I am very pleased to add Uros Nikolic to the Maccabi family. Uros is a talented attacking footballer who is delighted to be joining Maccabi. Uros has continued to develop over the last seasons at Dinamo Minsk and I believe he will continue his development with us. Uros not only brings quality on the field but I was equally impressed with his ambitious nature and desire to join Maccabi and work with Vladimir Ivic. He joins us at the right age with his best years ahead of him. Nikolic will join the group in the next few days and will be eligible at the start of the transfer window. I look forward to seeing Uros in Yellow in the near future. Welcome Uros!”
