ACF Fiorentina have signed Croatian striker Ante Rebić from RNK Split for an undisclosed fee, while their Serbia playmaker Adem Ljajić has joined AS Roma for €11m.
The 19-year-old Rebić made his debut for Croatia on 14 August, scoring against Liechtenstein. He has signed a contract until June 2018 with Vincenzo Montella's side, who face Grasshopper Club in the return leg of the UEFA Europa League play-offs on Thursday after winning 2-1 in Switzerland last week.
Meanwhile, the fee for Ljajić, 21, could rise to €15m. He has penned a deal until 2017 with the Giallorossi. Ljajić moved to Fiorentina from FK Partizan in January 2010 and scored 15 goals in 78 Serie A games with the Viola, earning seven Serbia caps.
