Sergej is believed to be happy in Italy, where he feels his game is growing rapidly. However, his representative recently spoke to Radio CRC (via Football Italia), and revealed that the player could be on his way out from Lazio next summer, as top clubs are expected to fight for him.
“Milinkovic-Savic to leave next summer? There’s been a lot of pressing from several clubs, such as those in Madrid, Manchester, and Milan, but the lad wants to be happy, play to keep growing and become one of the best in his role,” said Kezman.
Sergej is in his third season with Lazio, and has got off to a good start, especially after impressing for the club last term, where he scored 7 goals in 38 matches.
His agent went on to speak about the growing interest in his client’s services, by stating: “If Milinkovic-Savic keeps this up, there will be plenty of contact from different clubs, like there was over the summer.”
