Aberdeen have signed “old-fashioned defender” Slobodan Rubezic from Serbian top-flight side Novi Pazar.

The 6ft 4in centre-back made 37 league appearances for his side last season as they came close to a European place.

Rubezic has signed a three-year contract at Pittodrie, with the club holding an option to extend by a further year.

“Slobodan is a good old-fashioned defender, exactly what we need to bolster our defensive options,” manager Barry Robson said.

“He has had to be patient as we worked through the process, so I’m delighted to get this one finally over the line.

“Slobodan is a really driven and determined player who enjoys winning.

“He believes Aberdeen is the perfect environment for the next step in his footballing career and we look forward to working with him to help fulfil his personal aspirations, while also helping the club to achieve its ambitions next season.”
