Man Utd: signing of €80m Serie A star depends on former Chelsea striker
The Serbian promise is one of the best midfielders in Italy and Lazio president Claudio Lotito is aware that both Manchester clubs have set sights on the 22-year-old.
Juventus are also long time admirers of the former U21 Serbia International but Lotito prefers to sell the player abroad.
What’s for sure is that every club interested in the talented midfielder will have to deal with the requests of former Chelsea striker Mateja Kezman who is the player’s agent.
Kezman played for Chelsea in the 2004/05 campaign but could only manage four goals in 25 appearances with the Premier League giants.
Kezman has recently talked to Tuttosport about the future of his client: "Sergey is special, he's a combination of strength, speed, and technique. It's difficult to make a comparison, he's a top talent and what he needed was a club like Lazio and a coach like Inzaghi doing the best for him. Sergey is very happy to have him as a manager”, the former Jugoslavia striker said.
Manchester United and any other interested club will have to deal with Kezman’s requests in the summer if they are to sign Milinkovic-Savic at the end of the season.
