Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic plays down Manchester United rumours

Midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic has dismissed "rumours" which have suggested that he is open to a transfer away from Lazio.

Earlier this week, a report claimed that the Serbia international could end his stint, currently at six-and-a-half years, at Stadio Olimpico during the summer window.

With the 26-year-old also said to have had a disagreement with head coach Maurizio Sarri, speculation persists that Manchester United could eventually be his next destination.

However, commenting on Instagram, Milinkovic-Savic said: "I see lot of rumours about me but...I don't care! I just want Lazio to win."

Sarri has also commented on what he describes as "fake news", telling reporters: "I only had one fight with Luis Alberto, four months ago. I read one of the biggest fake news, that I had a fight with Milinkovic-Savic. I don't think so."

Milinkovic-Savic still has two-and-a-half years remaining on his Lazio contract.
