Sergej Milinkovic-Savic’s agent says the midfielder stayed at Lazio because ‘he loves the club’ and is not someone ‘who only thinks about money’.
Milinkovic-Savic had been linked with several top clubs in Europe throughout the summer but ultimately signed a new contract with Lazio on Monday.
“Sergei’s very happy at Lazio, I’ve said it several times and I repeat it,” Mateja Kezman told Corriere dello Sport.

“Sergei’s very happy at Lazio, I’ve said it several times and I repeat it,” Mateja Kezman told Corriere dello Sport.
“He’s worn the Biancoceleste shirt for three years and he loves the club as they brought him to Italy, just as he loves his fans and teammates.
“If he stayed, it’s because he believes in these colours. I’ve already said many times that we received many offers, but the idea of Lotito and Tare, from the beginning, was to keep Milinkovic for another year.
“It was figuring out how to do it. We worked on it and ultimately Sergej said he was very happy to stay for another season.
“We’re not people who only think about money…”
