Serbian footballer of the year Dragan Mrdja has joined Swiss club Sion.
Sion said on its website on Thursday that the 26-year-old forward signed a three-year contract.
Mrdja scored 22 goals for Vojvodina Novi Sad last season and was included in Serbia's squad at the World Cup, though did not feature in its three matches in South Africa.
Sion will hope Mrdja can compensate for the loss of Belgian forward Emile Mpenza, who scored 21 times last season before joining Neftchi Baku of Azerbaijan this week.

Sion must sign players before the end of August, when it begins serving a one-year transfer ban imposed by FIFA for breaking regulations over the signing of Essam El Hadary.
