Juventus continue to push to sign Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, but Lazio are also confident they will keep the midfielder.
The Serbian has emerged as one of the key players for the Biancocelesti in recent seasons and has made them resist losing him.
But his current contract has only about 18 months left, which means he’ll be back on the market as a free agent at the end of next season.
In the summer, he would only have a year left, which will drastically reduce what Lazio can earn from his sale, and that should make them want to sell him in January.
However, a report on Tuttomercatoweb reveals that the Roma team is confident that he will not leave at least not until the end of the season.
They are relaxed and do not believe that even Juventus can prevent them from keeping him on their squad.
Juve FC says
Milinkovic-Savic will be a great player for us if he moves, but it’s really hard to see Lazio selling him in January and I wouldn’t want to change clubs mid-season either.
However, in the summer, if you don’t sign a new contract, we can get it at a very low price.
