# Real Madrid set to bid for United target Milinkovic-Savic

Real Madrid are reportedly ready to bid for Lazio midfielder and Manchester United target Sergej Milinkovic-Savic**,** according to [Calcio Mercato](https://www.calciomercato.com/en/news/exclusive-real-madrid-table-mega-offer-for-manchester-united-and-90984).

Super agent Jorge Mendes is reportedly dealing with the transfer, with Real Madrid set to launch a big bid in an attempt to sign the Serbian midfielder.

According to Calcio Mercato, Real are set to offer over €100 million, with a further €15 million to €20 million in bonuses. This is still a big amount, but is reportedly below Lazio’s asking price for the player.

Juventus are reportedly out of the deal due to their signing of former Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo. The deal has obviously taken a lot out of their budget, meaning a deal for Milinkovic-Savic is now off the table.

If Real Madrid are to sign the midfielder however, they may have to pay more than the €120 million they have offered so far, with Lazio being historically tight-fisted.

United have been interested in a switch for the Serbian for some time, but may have to overpay for the midfielder if they want to bring him to Old Trafford.
