Milinkovic-Savic agent set for Man Utd talks?

Manchester United have revived their interest in Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and will meet up with the Lazio midfielder's agent to discuss a possible transfer next week, according to a report.

The Red Devils were strongly linked with a move for the 24-year-old last summer only to decide against making an offer due to Lazio's asking price of more than £100m.

However, the Italian outfit are understood to have lowered their demands this summer and would now consider bids of around €80m (£71.7m) for the midfielder.

Gazzetta dello Sport claims that these are now 'decisive hours' for any possible deal to take place as Milinkovic-Savic's agent - former Chelsea striker Mateja Kezman - travels to London for talks with United.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is thought to view the Serbia international as a possible replacement for Paul Pogba, particularly if they miss out on signing Bruno Fernandes from Sporting Lisbon.

United are reportedly planning an opening bid of €75m (£67.2m), although they could face competition for his signature from Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan.
