Manchester United Transfer News: Juventus 'Give Up' Sergej Milinkovic-Savic Race

Manchester United's alleged pursuit of Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic looks to have taken a turn for the better following reports Juventus have backed out of the race to sign him.

Paris Saint-Germain are still thought to be a big contender in the hunt for Milinkovic-Savic, although Italian website Calciomercato.com reported Juve will no longer be vying for his signature.

According to the report, Juve thought they could use their proximity to Turin rivals Torino—where Milinkovic-Savic's younger brother, Vanja, plays as a goalkeeper—as a sweetener in him moving.
