Milinkovic-Savic convinces Man Utd boss Mourinho with World Cup impact

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho wants to bring Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic to Old Trafford this summer.

The Independent says the Serbia midfielder has been on United's radar for a while and as he continues to impress in Russia this summer Mourinho has made him United's No 1 transfer target.

With Marouane Fellaini likely to officially leave the club at the weekend, having failed to sign a new contract, Mourinho is keen to add another midfielder to the ranks despite already signing Fred.

But he won't come cheap as Lazio are likely to demand around £90m for the Serbia international.
