The Italian media have perpetually linked Milinkovic-Savic with a move away from the Italian capital and it appears that this summer will be no different.

La Gazzetta dello Sport’s Giovanni Albanese reports that Lazio are finally ready to part ways with the 27-year-old, but they’ve slapped a hefty €70m price tag on his head. Juventus, however, are just one of several teams interested.

Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain are also keen on striking a deal, which means that the Bianconeri, who have reportedly opened talks with the player’s agent, must move fast.

Milinkovic-Savic is as close to leaving Lazio as he ever has during his prolonged spell with the club, and it seems that Juve won’t get a better chance of bringing him to Turin than they will this summer.

If the hierarchy believes that the 27-year-old is the guy to return the Old Lady to the promised land, then they must do everything to broker a deal with the Biancocolesti before their competitors swoop.
