“I didn’t see myself ready”: Ex-Manchester City player claims move to the club came at the wrong time

Atletico Madrid defender Stefan Savić has claimed that his move to Manchester City came at the wrong time in his career. After spending a year at the Etihad, the Serbian left for Fiorentina on deadline day in 2012 summer transfer window, where his impressive performances lead him to the Spanish capital. Speaking to AS, the former Cityzen said.

“It was very important for me, because I came directly from the Serbian league and it was a big step in my career," Savić told.   "Looking back, I may not have been ready for the Premier League at the time, it was a very big jump.    “At that time, I didn’t see myself ready to play there and I decided to go to Italy. I grew a lot for three years and it helped me to sign for Atlético.”
