Arsenal makes first approach for long-term Juventus target

Arsenal have been interested in Sergej Milinkovic-Savic for much of the past few months and are now entering decision time.

The midfielder is entering the final year of his current contract at Lazio and the Biancocelesti have conceded defeat to keep him.

That should give Juve a good chance of adding him to their team, but several other sides are interested and one suitor has already made an offer.

A report in Tuttomercatoweb reveals that Arsenal have submitted an offer worth £35m for his signing and are waiting to see if it would be enough.

Juve FC says

SMS is an excellent midfielder who has done well in Serie A over the past few seasons, so we’ll get an accomplished player if he joins us.

However, interest from Arsenal should worry us because Lazio would prefer to sell to a club outside of Serie A and they have enough money to do the deal.

But if the Serb insists he wants to move to Turin like Dusan Vlahovic did, then we have a good chance of adding him to our squad, but that doesn’t mean we’ll get a better deal from his current employers.
