Real Madrid have launched a massive offer for Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
Il Messaggero says Real president Florentino Perez has contacted Lazio counterpart Claudio Lotito to deliver a bid of €150m.
Real's proposal far outstrips rival offers tabled for the Serbia international.
Manchester United and Juventus are also interested in Milinkovic-Savic, but rate him at less than €100m.
Just last week, Milinkovic-Savic's agent, Mateja Kezman, commented: “Real Madrid? He said in an interview that when he was a child he dreamed of playing for them. That's the aspiration of any young player though. In life and football you never know what morning will bring."
