Manchester United are reportedly leading the race to sign the Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.

According to a report via Daily Mail, the 26-year-old Serbian midfielder is valued at around £58 million, and Italian giants Juventus are keen on signing him as well.

It is no secret that the Red Devils will need to find an upgrade on Nemanja Matic and Scott McTominay soon, and the 26 year old Serbian could prove to be a massive upgrade.

The Lazio midfielder is regarded as one of the finest box-to-box midfielders in Europe right now, and he could improve Manchester United immensely.

The 26-year-old will help out defensively, and he is outstanding going forward as well.

The Serbian could partner the likes of Paul Pogba and Bruno Fernandes at the heart of Manchester United’s midfield, but it remains to be seen whether the Red Devils are prepared to pay the asking price for him this month.

Milinkovic-Savic has been linked with a move to the Premier League in the past as well, and a transfer to Manchester United would be the ideal next step in his development.

The 26-year-old is at the peak of his powers right now, and joining a top club like Manchester United could help him develop further and achieve his immense potential.

The Serbian has the potential to develop into a world-class footballer, and he could end up justifying the massive outlay in the long run.

Spurs are keen on the Lazio star as well

Meanwhile, the player has been linked with a move to the north London giants Tottenham Hotspur.

Spurs could definitely use a quality central midfielder like him. It remains to be seen whether they can outmuscle their Premier League rivals Manchester United and secure his services this month or at the end of this season.

Working with a world-class coach like Antonio Conte could help the player improve further, and it remains to be seen how the situation evolves over the next few weeks.

 The Serbian midfielder has fallen out with the Lazio manager Maurizio Sarri, and he’s keen on a move away from Stadio Olimpico.

The 26-year-old could be the ideal replacement for Tanguy Ndombele if the Frenchman leaves this month.
