Could Manchester United pip Tottenham and Liverpool to Sergej Milinkovic-Savic’s signature following player’s latest comments?

Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic is a wanted man in the English Premier League, and despite recently putting pen to paper for a five-year contract extension at the Serie A club, he remains firmly on the radars of the top-flight’s bigwigs.

According to the Mirror, Manchester City, Tottenham and Liverpool sent scouts to watch the Serbia international in action during Lazio’s 4-1 victory over Genoa a fortnight ago.

And while his contract renewal was supposed to pour cold water on the Premier League links, the presence of Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho in the stands during Serbia’s 2-0 win over Montenegro on Thursday set tongues wagging again.
