Italian Serie A giants Lazio have reportedly asked for a transfer fee of £90m for their highly rated midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.

According to Sky Sports Italia, Manchester United are interested in the player but the Italians won’t let him leave the club until they get £90m for him.

It was revealed that Manchester United are ready to offer £72m for the Serbian international star.

The said offer from Manchester United would be £18m short of the valuation from Lazio.

Sergej Milinkovic-Savic was one of the most sought-after players during last summer’s transfer window but a poor World Cup campaign stopped him from getting a big move away from Lazio.

Manchester United were one of the clubs keen on signing him last summer and the Red Devils have resurrected their interest in him.

Milinkovic-Savic didn’t have the best of World Cup campaigns for Serbia who were eliminated in the group stage at the tournament.

Serbia were knocked out in Group E of the 2018 FIFA World Cup tournament in Russia after they finished third in the group behind Switzerland and leaders Brazil.

Apart from Manchester United, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic was also a target for Real Madrid, Inter Milan and AC Milan last summer.
