New Bristol City goalkeeper Stefan Bajic sought the advice of Han-Noah Massengo before following his countryman by making the move from France to the West Country.
Bajic was confirmed as City’s fourth summer signing on Tuesday, signing a three-year contract, subject to work visa clearance, having left Ligue 2 side Pau at the end of 2021/22. It will be the first time the 20-year-old has been based outside of France, having spent the majority of his career with Saint-Etienne, and has parallels with Massengo’s transfer three years ago.
Massengo, Bajic’s teammate at Under-19 level for France, swapped Monaco for Bristol in 2019 to play more first-team football and has 89 Championship appearances under his belt and settled with his family in the area, albeit with his own future beyond this summer uncertain as he enters the final 12 months of his contract.
