Lazio are prepared to sell Sergej Milinkovic-Savic for €70-80m and Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri is pushing to sign him, despite the strong interest from Manchester United and PSG.
The Serbia international is expected to leave the Stadio Olimpico in the summer after an excellent season under Maurizio Sarri. The 27-year-old has contributed to 20 goals in 34 Serie A appearances and according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, he is Max Allegri’s priority target in midfield.
The Tuscan tactician wants a midfielder who can score goals consistently and Milinkovic-Savic is the perfect man for the job. Allegri feels that Juventus have missed a player with Milinkovic-Savic’s characteristics since Paul Pogba left the club in 2016.
The Serbia international has never scored less than five goals in the last four seasons. In Turin, he would reunite with his friend and compatriot Dusan Vlahovic and his brother Vanja who plays for Torino.
Juventus’ transfer budget for the summer is in the region of €50-60m, not enough to sign the midfielder who has a €70-80m price tag. According to Gazzetta and Calciomercato.com, Man United and PSG are the most credible contenders and have the financial power to outbid the Old Lady in the summer. Nevertheless, the Bianconeri will do all they can to sign the midfielder who is destined to join a top club at the end of the campaign.
🚨 Decisione presa, Milinkovic Savic lascerà la Lazio al termine della stagione. Lotito non può chiudere più i 120 milioni di qualche anno ma non vuole scendere sotto gli 80. Manchester United e Psg le pretendenti più serie pic.twitter.com/dt1YBBa21L

I can see cash and players being offered – Fagioli and Rovelli could possibly be included…
How do Juventus spend so much money?
I thought that they needed the super league to survive
gee, They hjave enough money. Google Agnelli, their presidenmt, if u can manage it .
Ur thoughts weere wrong. Maybe u meant inter
@gee … you’re a clown.
oops sorry @gee I am now Inter through and through.
💙 🖤 💙 🖤 💪
First you use my name and shame it with ur Rubentus dribble. Now go have nap time and drink your juice little Fake Samy.
Most overrated player in the league no doubt.
Nothing special at all. He will probably flop at a big team were he would be bought to make a difference.
Both as part of this deal, and on free I am starting to expect these Juve player to join Lazio:
Perin (free?), Rugani, Rovella, Fagioli, Bernerdeschi (free).
And I would not mind Frabotta, McKennie and Arthur as well.
Juve should be able to make a deal if they really want to.
Milenkovic-SMS-Vlahovic, I don’t mind that Serbs trio at Juve
I still wonder why Juve blatantly shows the world they won’t renew Berna adn Dybala, those players are still valuable.. they can get rid of them with offering to clubs months before expiration contract, but now everybody knows they can get them for free.
Rabiot would start scoring goals for them if you can arrange a swap dealalong with Arthur
