The 21-year-old put pen to paper on a two-and-a-half year deal to complete his move to the club.

Wasiu joins Zeleznica after an impressive spell in Belgium with Lokeren and he is expected to play a pivotal role at the Pancevo-based side as they eye a place in next season's UEFA Champions League.

"I'm here to use my qualities to help the team achieve the best possible results. I can't wait to run out onto the pitch in front of our fans."
