Manchester United<\/a> have been sent a surprising message over their interest in Sergej Milinkovic-Savic<\/a>, according to Corriere Dello Sport via Richard Fay of the Manchester Evening News<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Manchester United Sent Surprise Sergej Milinkovic-Savic Message<\/h2>\n

Paul Pogba<\/a> Replacement<\/h3>\n

Manchester United consider<\/a> Milinkovic-Savic as a perfect replacement for wantaway midfielder Paul Pogba.<\/p>\n

The Frenchman rejoined the club in 2016 for a then world-record fee of \u00a389 million, having left four years prior at the end of his contract to join Italian giants Juventus<\/a>.<\/p>\n

While a huge impact was expected of him due to an equally large price tag, he has been comparatively poor, especially when considering how well Bruno Fernandes<\/a> has done, not only individually, but for the team as well.<\/p>\n

Pogba has consistently been linked<\/a> with a move away from the Theatre of Dreams almost since he arrived, and with him wanting to leave<\/a>, he may make that happen this summer.<\/p>\n

Milinkovic-Savic in Good Form<\/h3>\n

This season, the Serbian has been excellent for Lazio, as always.<\/p>\n

With nine direct goal involvements from central midfield this campaign, Milinkovic-Savic has impressed greatly, attracting United\u2019s interest once again.<\/p>\n

While the Red Devils have been linked<\/a> with his signature for some time, nothing has materialised, but with Pogba potentially on his way out of Old Trafford this summer, they may finally make their move.<\/p>\n

Currently rebuilding the squad, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer<\/a> wants to sign players who are both young and talented, and while Milinkovic-Savic certainly satisfies the latter category, he is also just 25 years of age and has many years left to show his quality.<\/p>\n

Lazio\u2019s Sergej Milinkovic-Savic Message<\/h3>\n

Lazio recently sent United a warning over making a move for their Serbian playmaker. While the coronavirus has caused many clubs to fall into financial difficulties, the Italian outfit are holding out for their full valuation of Milinkovic-Savic, which is in the region of \u20ac100 million.<\/p>\n
