Manchester United have had a golden opportunity in their search for Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
Recently, a report surfaced stating that Juventus was the most likely destination for the Serb, who could finally make a move.
Amid longstanding interest from United dating back to José Mourinho’s managerial days, the Red Devils seemed to have missed the Milinkovic-Savic train.
However, United may have been given a lifeline in their position as fans of the 27-year-old.
The Turin giants are currently embroiled in trouble and legal battles after the club’s entire board of directors resigned on Monday over accounting problems.
Italian prosecutors have requested that the club’s former president, Andrea Agnelli, and others stand trial for false accounting claims.
Juventus are accused of massively comprehending their financial losses in the last three years.
Calciomercato reports that this could negatively affect Milinkovic-Savic’s prospects of joining the Old Lady.
Sergej Milinkovic-Savic continues to disturb the dreams of Juventus in the market, although at this time the thought is more about the investigation that sees the club as the protagonist.
“The request is even for 100 million, but the 2024 deadline makes it essentially impossible to reach these numbers. Also because Serie A is not capable of generating this type of operation, technically Juve was, but the future is cloudy now.”
“Lotito [Lazio owner] expects at this time in some movement from the outside, with Kezman[player’s agent] You already have it on your schedule.
The player’s facilitator, Kezman, is understood to be on a European tour in an effort to secure a blockbuster move for his client.
The next meeting, according to Calciomercato, will be with Real Madrid and Florentino Pérez.
