Manchester United targeting Sergej Milinković-Savić as Pogba replacement

Manchester United has an interesting summer ahead of them, with a new manager set to be announced soon and the possibility of new signings after failing to make any in the January transfer window.

With Paul Pogba set to leave the club on a free transfer this summer, the Old Trafford authority could already be planning to replace him.

According to Tuttomercato, Manchester United will have a tough battle with Paris Saint-Germain this summer to sign Sergej Milinković-Savić, who has been linked with a transfer away from Lazio at the end of the season.

Juventus are also interested in signing the 27-year-old midfielder, although he is more likely to leave Italy than stay in Italy, according to reports.

As Paul Pogba’s contract is set to expire very soon, it’s evident that the World Cup-winning champion is more interested in pursuing other possibilities than building a future at Old Trafford, and losing the player would be a huge loss for the club.

However, if they are to move on, they should bring in a replacement, and Milinkovic-Savic may certainly provide something different. Manchester United have been running behind his signature for quite a long time and they should be sealing the deal this summer if things work as per their need.

The Lazio player has eight goals and nine assists and is the sixth-best central midfielder in Europe.

Manchester United is also targetting winger Sergio Gomez. The 21-year-old winger has recently been impressing at Anderlecht in Belgium. Gomez has been one of Vincent Kompany’s standout performers this season, with five goals and 11 assists in the league.
