Chelsea have been handed a major transfer boost over Manchester United in their pursuit of Lazio star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
Milinkovic-Savic is reportedly being targeted by a number of top European clubs including the Blues, Arsenal and United. Reports this weekend have indicated that meetings have taken place already between Chelsea and Lazio to discuss all possibilities.
Chelsea are keen to strengthen their midfield options but have failed to find success yet after Aurelien Tchouameni's decision to join Real Madrid in a deal worth £68million plus add-ons and West Ham seemingly pricing Declan Rice out of a return to Stamford Bridge this summer. Thomas Tuchel's side reportedly hold a significant advantage over their rivals in the pursuit for the Serbian midfielder, who is valued at around £60million by Lazio.
