Former Manchester United transfer target Sergej Milnkovic-Savic has admitted that he "learnt a lot" from Paul Pogba following his arrival in Italy back in 2015.
The Serbian international, who was a target for United back in 2018 when Jose Mourinho occupied the managerial hot seat at Old Trafford, joined Lazio seven years ago from Belgian club Genk. He was a midfielder on the up and was attracting plenty of attention.
The move to Lazio meant that Milinkovic-Savic, with respect to the Belgian Pro League, would be applying his trade at a higher level, with Serie A considered as having better quality. At the time, Serie A was already flooded with world-class midfielders, including Andrea Pirlo and Arturo Vidal, amongst others.
