Behind the south Maracana - Maksimović is Zvezda's future

- It is unnecessary to talk about Andrija Maksimović. He has an incredible talent that shows more and more from game to game. He showed no fear when, as the youngest, he made his first appearance for Grafičar, and already after a few matches he proved to be one of the key players and key factors for our team. He took on his seniors and showed that he can handle far more experienced ones. At the end of the day, you could see everything you needed to see at the derby, where he was one of the best footballers on the field - said Neđić.

After training with the first team, he joined Grafičar this season and showed incredible progress.

- He first went through preparations with the first team of Zvezda, so he joined us in Zlatibor. Immediately after his arrival, we saw that he had improved even more and that he had raised the level of his game to a much higher level. Now all his work, effort and persistence are paying off, and I hope that his career will only go on an upward trajectory, which we all expect .

The talented young footballer has the quality for the international stage and matches against the European giants.

- In the derby, it was clear that there is no pressure for him and that he can deal with everyone equally. In the duel against Benfica, he scored a goal in the Youth Champions League, and I responsibly claim that the Portuguese team does not have such a quality player as Maksimović. He should now be counted on on the European stage as well, because he has shown that Zvezda is a serious pledge for the future - Neđić said.
