Lazio have reportedly told Liverpool that the bidding for Sergej Milinkovic-Savic starts at £67million, with the Serie A midfielder being continually linked with a switch to England.
The Serbia star was transformed into one of the best midfielders in Europe working under Simone Inzaghi at the Stadio Olimpico. He showed his old boss all his qualities as Lazio took on Inzhagi’s new side Inter Milan on Saturday.
Milinkovic-Savic put in a dominant display as Lazio beat the reigning champions 3-1. He also powered home the third with a header past Samir Handanovic.
The 26-year-old was labelled as ‘better than Paul Pogba’ early in his career and has gone from strength to strength since.
Indeed, back in 2018, sporting director Igli Tare said it would take “much more” than £80million for Lazio to even consider selling the player.
