Manchester United already have a replacement for Paul Pogba lined up.

The Independent says United's stance has altered with their position on Pogba being unsellable "already loosening".

And United manager Jose Mourinho is thought to have lined up a direct replacement for him in the form of Lazio ace Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.

Milinkovic-Savic has forged a reputation as one of Serie A's top midfield talents over the past couple of years.

And it would take a sizeable portion of the fee United would secure for Pogba in order to prise him away from Lazio.

The Italian press claim Mourinho's agent, Jorge Mendes, is close to Milinkovic-Savic and he could broker a deal for United.
