The 19-year-old defending midfielder comes over from Inter Milan, the Italian top club where he went through his youth education and who lent him to Lucerne, Switzerland last season. There he came into action 38 times (three goals, two assists). His performance gave him a place in the Swiss team of the year.

Stankovic signed a contract in Jan Breydel until 2029 and gets the number 25. The transition had been in the air for quite some time and was confirmed by Blauw-Zwart on Thursday evening.
