Bayern Munich have joined Manchester United in their interest for Lazio midfielder Sergey Milinkovic-Savic.

United boss Jose Mourinho had scouts at the Olimpico on Sunday to see the Serb in action for Lazio's win over Genoa.

However, they weren't alone, with Bayern also represented at the 3-2 result to check on Milinkovic-Savic.

Rome sources say Mourinho is eager to sign the midfielder, though representatives insist he won't be on the move in January.

United could have an edge courtesy of Milinkovic-Savic's brother, Vanya, who was on the club's books but blocked from officially moving to Old Trafford due to work permit issues.
