Fulham's Aleksandar Mitrovic scored as Serbia beat Norway to clinch promotion to the top tier of the Nations League.

Needing to win, Mitrovic slotted home Ivan Ilic's pass from 16 yards for his 50th Serbia goal, and sixth in his past four games.

It was his 14th Nations League goal and doubled Serbia's lead after Juventus' Dusan Vlahovic's strike put them ahead.

Serbia have won promotion in two of the three Nations Leagues, having started in League C.

Norway would have been promoted with a point in Oslo.

Mitrovic's 14 goals in the Nations League is a record and he is also the leading goal scorer in this year's tournament. He has scored four goals in his last four away games.

He has now netted 12 goals in his past 11 matches for club and country and 58 in 65 games since the start of last season.

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland played the full 90 minutes for Norway, and had four shots, but failed to score for the 10th time in 23 international games.

The other game in Group B4 saw Sweden relegated to League C with a 1-1 draw with Slovenia

Torino president Urbano Cairo and sporting director Davide Vagnati are set to open negotiations with Ola Aina towards extending the Nigerian defender’s contract, according to Calcio Mercato.

Aina is in the last lap of his contract with Torino, with the four-year deal he signed in 2019 expiring in June 2023.

With Wilfried Singo, Valentino Lazaro, and Mergim Vojvoda options for Torino at right-back, Aina is not the first-choice full-back for manager Ivan Juric.

But the Super Eagles star has made six appearances for the Grenades in Serie A, and the club will have to decide whether to offer him a contract extension.

The versatile full-back failed to nail a starting spot for the Blues and after a temporary spell at Hull City, he joined Torino on loan in 2018.

The Nigeria international impressed in Turin and sealed a permanent transfer in 2019 for a reported €9.80 million.

Aina spent the 2020/2021 season on loan at Fulham but he could not earn a permanent contract in London after the English side got relegated from the Premier League.

Still held in high esteem in England, Aina was a subject of transfer interest from a couple of Premier League clubs including West Ham in the summer.
