Savic has a long list of potential suitors
Juventus have made Lazio’s midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic their priority signing this summer. The Lazio midfielder is hot property on the back of another highly successful season in the capital, attracting the attention of a number of clubs.
According to Tuttosport, Juventus are very keen on the Serbian international and have made him their main priority for the summer. Any deal could cost in excess of €100 (£87 million).
However Juventus could face three significant challenges-
First of all, it’s reported Lazio owner Claudio Lotito will demand at least €100m for the player. Secondly, the competition is rich and includes Manchester United, Manchester City and PSG. Finally, dealing with Lotito will prove tricky, especially given Juve’s failed pursuit of Balde Keita last summer.
Alongside Milinkovic-Savic, the Bianconeri could look to three other European options for midfield: PSG’s Adrien Rabiot, Tottenham Hotspur’s Mousa Dembélé and finally Arsenal’s Aaron Ramsey. Closer to home, Juventus are also monitoring Roma’s Lorenzo Pellegrini and Atalanta’s Bryan Cristante.
Savic joined Lazio from Belgian club Genk in 2015.
