Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic is reportedly close
to signing a new contract with the club that would lower his release
clause to just £89million in a major potential transfer boost to
Manchester United.
The Serbia international is one of the finest midfield players in the
world and could be a fine fit at Old Trafford given their current
needs.
Not only are United weaker in the middle for losing the
influential Michael Carrick to retirement this summer, they have also
struggled to get Paul Pogba firing at his best, and the Frenchman’s
future is now in doubt.
The Independent
just recently claimed United could be more open to selling Pogba in the
near future after his dip in form, with Jose Mourinho said to have
identified Milinkovic-Savic as his preferred replacement.
And according to Don Balon,
the Red Devils could be given a real boost soon as the 23-year-old
looks set to sign a new contract with a lower buy-out clause.
This is an exciting development for MUFC if they do decide to push on
with their pursuit of Milinkovic-Savic, as he does arguably look an
upgrade on Pogba at the moment, and a better fit for what Mourinho wants
from his midfield players.
