Lazio, Claudio Lotito sheds light on Sergej Milinkovic-Savic
The Serbian still has one year left on his contract with the biancocelesti
Talk of Milinkovic-Savic’s future continues at Lazio. The Serbian still has one year left on his contract with Lazio but seems now convinced to set his sights elsewhere. On his trail would be several clubs, especially Italian ones. In particular, watch out for Juventus, which seems ready to come forward in a big way.
Patron Lotito is clear about the Serbian midfielder’s future: “I would not sell him, in fact I am trying to renew his contract. But a contract is the meeting of the will of all parties…. Surely Lazio to buy does not need to sell. And this is important: not everyone can do that, on the contrary…. If a player will be lost to us, it will not happen because we have to make money. Technical choices, personal decisions, relationships count. Then, if one wants to leave, I don’t keep him,” Lotito’s own words to Gazzetta dello Sport.
In short, the ball is in Milinkovic-Savic’s court. In fact, he will have to be the one to push for the transfer also because, as specified by Lotito himself, “… to me he has not said that he wants to leave.”
