One player who continually reports being linked with a move to Juventus is Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
The midfielder is one of the best names in Serie A over the years and has continued to deliver strong performances for Lazio.
As usual, Juve is interested in him because he usually buys the best players from his rivals.
If you follow the rumours, it seems that the bianconeri have been close to signing him often in recent summers.
However, the Serb has never pushed to leave the Biancocelesti, recently telling reporters that they always report leaving, but he has always been happy in Rome.
The midfielder said, as quoted by Football Italia:
“It was the same as any other summer. You always talked about different clubs and then I started a new season with Lazio. We have many young players, it is the second year with coach Maurizio Sarri and we have clear ideas with a stronger mentality than before.
“I am happy that tomorrow will be my 300th match in a Lazio shirt, I still remember the first one and all the years that have passed. I don’t know what to tell you about the transfer market, my agents and the club have to think about that. I am here with a smile on my face and I am happy”.
Juve FC says
Milinkovic-Savic is one of Italy’s best players at his position, so it’s no surprise we want to sign him.
The midfielder seems destined to play for a bigger club in the future, and it could be us.
For now, he remains loyal to Lazio, and that’s fine, but it doesn’t stop us from looking to sign him.
