Arsenal look set to re-ignite their interest in Lazio star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic ahead of the summer transfer window. The Gunners were heavily linked with a move for the Serbian international before the start of the 2022/23 season, but a transfer could not be agreed.
Mikel Arteta and Edu will certainly be faced with a tough battle if they decide to make a formal move for Milinkovic-Savic with Lazio President Claudio Lotito a big admirer of his star player. Lotito recently described him as the "best midfielder in the world" and suggested his price tag of €120million (£103.2m) increases every month.
However, Lotito may be forced to lower his demand in the summer as the 27-year-old is not interested in signing a new Lazio contract, with his current deal set to expire in 2024.
