Maurizio Sarri has handed Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham a huge boost towards securing the services of Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. The 27-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League in recent times, and the Lazio boss has hinted that his all-encompassing midfielder is finally set for a summer switch.
The Serbia international has featured 36 times for the former Blues boss in Serie A this season, directly contributing towards 22 goals. Since taking centre stage at Stadio Olimpico, his impressive displays for the Italian giants have courted the interest of several leading European sides.
According to the Mirror, Milinkovic-Savic was among the top targets on Chelsea's transfer shopping list under Frank Lampard. The report claims that the west Londoners had sent scouts to watch the Serbian ply his trade, and were ready to table a £70 million bid.
