Arsenal are set to step up their interest in Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic in the January transfer window.
As per Tutto Juve, Arsenal will let their interest known for Sergej Milinkovic-Savic in January and will go for the final kill. The 27-year-old Serbian playmaker has been on the radar of a number of big clubs for quite a long time.
Arsenal have steered themselves clear at the top with all their midfielders chipping in with useful contributions in their jubilant title run this season. Thomas Partey, Granit Xhaka and Martin Odegaard have been irreplaceable in the midfield. But Mikel Arteta does not want any distraction in his aim and wants an extra pair of feet to provide some competition in the squad.
Arsenal have managed to stay clear of Manchester City in the Premier League title race. But the Gunners have had some occasions in the past where they handed over their advantage to their opponents. The North London giants are pretty determined this time, and the World Cup break could hurt their momentum. So they want to avoid that circumstance at all costs.
Sergej Milinkovic-Savic has been a monstrous presence in the Lazio midfield, and the central midfielder could act as a bridge between the Arsenal midfield and the attack. His ability to influence the game on both sides of the pitch has been one of his major qualities and he has only grown in stature in Serie A in the last few years.
From central midfield, the 27-year-old has managed to rack up five goals and seven assists for Lazio in all competitions. And he will certainly be a shrewd addition for Arsenal. Meanwhile, Juventus are also monitoring his movement. But the Premier League giants could present with a much more feasible opportunity for the Serbian midfielder.
Milinkovic-Savic was unable to seal a place in the knockout stages for his country. But his performance in World Cup further established his reputation, and Arsenal will do their best to earn a move for the midfielder.
Recent reports have pointed towards a possible swap offer to sign the 27-year-old, and it is unclear if Lazio will accept such a proposition. His current contract at the Serie A club runs out in 2024. So this January could be the best opportunity for Lazio to cash in on a player who has been the nucleus of their team.
