Man Utd Still Chasing Sergej Milinkovic-Savic Amid Strong Interest From Juventus & Real Madrid

??Manchester United remain in the hunt for Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, with ??Juventus and ?Real Madrid among the other potential destinations for the Serbia international as his agents attempt to engineer a summer move for the player.

Meanwhile in Italy, Juventus are believed to have an agreement in place with the Biancocelesti but any deal to sign Milinkovic-Savic hinges upon whether or not midfielder Miralem Pjanic leaves the ?Serie A champions this summer.
