Manchester United are deemed favourites to sign Sergej Milinkovic-Savic from Lazio.
The Red Devils were heavily linked with the 27-year-old in the summer, but a move did not materialise.
Although the Serbia international has begun the season with Lazio, he is currently being linked with a potential move away from Italy in the winter transfer window.
Manchester United reportedly remain undeterred in their efforts to sign Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
The Red Devils are going to improve their midfield options for the current campaign following their struggles against Brighton & Hove Albion last weekend.
There has been a number of speculation surrounding Milinkovic-Savic’s future over the years, with Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus and Real Madrid all said to be keen on the Serbian.
Manchester United are weighing up a £42m bid for Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
Man United head coach Erik ten Hag wants to sign a new holding midfielder this summer, with Barcelona’s Frenkie de Jong still a number one target.
However, the 25-year-old midfielder is still resisting a move to Old Trafford, despite speculations of the two clubs coming to an agreement over a move for a total package of £72m.
Manchester United are reportedly edged closer to completing the signing of free agent Thomas Strakosha.
The 27-year-old goalkeeper has made 208 appearances for Lazio in all competitions.
He left the Italian club at the end of June following the expiration of his contract, though, and the shot-topper is therefore available on a free transfer this summer.
Chelsea have reportedly joined the list of clubs wanting to sign Thomas Strakosha as a replacement for goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga.
It remains unclear whether the 27-year-old will request to depart Stamford Bridge this summer.
Nevertheless, the Blues are in a position where they need to consider alternatives and will be looking for value for money.
