La Repubblica claims Manchester United are on the verge of signing Sergej Milinkovic-Savic from Lazio for €75m plus bonuses.
It’s significantly lower than the €120m President Claudio Lotito claims to have rejected last season, but by his own admission, there were fewer resources to keep the Serbian this time around.
According to the online edition of the Italian newspaper, a deal is practically done for €75m plus various add-ons.
Milinkovic-Savic has also agreed a five-year contract with the Premier League giants.
Paris Saint-Germain are also interested, so it’s still possible that once Lazio set the price, they can spark a bidding war.
