He told AS: "It was a very important stage for me, because I went there directly from the Serbian league and it was a big step in my career.

"Looking back, I may not have been ready for the Premier League at the time, it was a very big leap. But it was a very good experience for me, I played just over 20 games and it helped me gain experience, grow as a footballer and as a man.

"At that time I didn't see myself ready to play there and I decided to go to Italy. It came in handy and I grew a lot for three years and it helped me sign for Atlético."
