Southampton midfielder Dusan Tadic has signed a new contract that will keep him at St Mary's until 2020.

The Serbia international has scored 13 goals and registered 21 assists for the Premier League side since moving to the Saints in 2014.

Tadic told the official Southampton site: "I am really pleased. I have had two beautiful years here and a great connection with the supporters and everyone in the club – all the players and the staff.

"I am really happy that I have signed a new contract. The club showed a lot of effort to keep me. There were also other possibilities, but we recognised that the best is that I stay in Southampton, and I want to mention they put in a lot of effort for that, and I appreciate that."

Tadic began his career at Serbian club Vojvodina before plying his trade at Dutch sides Groningen and FC Twente.
