# Manchester United put off by Milinkovic-Savic price-tag

Premier League clubs Manchester United and Manchester City have been keeping a close eye on the development of Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic over the past few months, but have been told he will cost more than €100m to sign, according to a report on [CalcioMercato](https://www.calciomercato.com/en/news/manchester-united-city-nervous-about-lazio-price-tag-30717).

The midfielder has been very impressive for Lazio for the past year and has become one of their most influential players.

Savic is a perfect midfielder and can attack as well as defend. Signing a player of his quality and tender age would be an asset to both clubs.

The 22-year-old has been tipped to have a very bright future and is currently earning rave reviews from all over Europe for his influence in midfield for Lazio.

The midfielder’s most well-renowned achievement so far this season has been to help his side win the Italian Super Cup against Juventus.

Lazio president Lolito sees an opportunity to make a huge sum of money from Savic and has put a price tag of about €100m on the Serbian midfielder.

The price-tag is off putting for both Manchester clubs, who, even in a crazy market like today’s, will not pay that price for him.

The Serbian has found the net once this season in an impressive start to the campaign by Lazio.
