AC Milan racing the clock to sign Lazio's Sergej Milinkovic-Savic
Posted Friday, August 17, 2018 by ESPN
The continuing speculation over the future of Lazio star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic might be about to come to an end with word that AC Milan have reached an agreement to sign the coveted young midfielder with the Serie A deadline day looming on Friday.
As reported by venerable Italian financial newspaper Il Sole 24 Ore, Milan have struck a €40 million deal with their Roman rivals that will see Milinkovic-Savic move to the San Siro on a season-long loan with an option to buy.
The 23-year-old prodigy has been linked with several European heavyweight clubs over the past few months, with the likes of Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus all linked to the Serbia international.
Should all go to plan before Friday's transfer deadline, Milinkovic-Savic will be the second big-name signing procured this window by the Rossoneri's new owners, the Elliott Management group, following the recent arrival of Gonzalo Higuain.
