The soap opera whose main actor is Sergej Milinković Savić could get a new, somewhat unexpected, episode. And that in the form of the Serbian national team player staying in Rome. For years it has been said and written that he is wanted by more famous and more powerful clubs than Lazio, both in Italy and abroad, although the latest information suggests that the central midfielder will tie his future to the Stadio Olimpico.And that’s because nobody is offering him a tempting deal, at least officially at the moment, which is why Sergej allegedly feels a bit disappointed after eight years spent in the Eternal City. He hoped that he would finally be able to cash in on good performances in the last couple of yearsr, however, according to information from Sky Italy, none of the Serie A clubs that were linked to Sergej in the previous transfer window are looking for him as strongly as before. For example, Juventus, although long mentioned as the favorite to sign, is about to agree with Adrien Rabiot about the continuation of cooperation; Inter Milan secured the arrival of Davide Fratessi from Sassuolo; AC Milan do not have enough resources to pay what Claudio Lotito is asking for, and they are also in organizational chaos.##NAJAVA_MECA_7355366##That is why it seems most logical that Milinković-Savić signs an extension with Lazio. In a situation where the offers do not really arrive, the club’s leaders think pragmatically, and club president Lotito is in the position to present Sergej with an offer for the renewal of cooperation, currently scheduled until June 2024. In this way, he would certainly get a more comfortable position than the current one, because he would not allow to be left without a cent of compensation next summer, when, according to the current situation, the Serb’s contract expires.Currently, Lotito is demanding €40,000,000 for the midfielder. Allegedly, Saudi side Al Ahli offered 38,000,000 euros, although it’s not just about money. Or it’s not about money at all. It’s more about style and status. Sergej doesn’t want to go to the Middle East, he wants to play football in a strong league. Even in Lazio, it’s not that bad. It may not be like in Inter or Juventus, but with the captain’s armband in the absence of Ciro Immobile and the huge freedom of coach Maurizio Sarri, after eight years spent in Rome, it is clear that he is not that eager to leave the Italian capital.Unless some special offer comes along…Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovič-Savič could end up staying at the club despite transfer speculations.As reported by Sky Sport Italia, Lazio are confident to extend Serbian’s contract, wich expires in 2024.In addition, Lazio are asking for €40 million for him.🔵🟡 pic.twitter.com/QafjxXSYr6— Markuss Tauriņš (@M_rkito22) July 5, 2023
