Fiorentina’s highly-rated defender Nikola Milenkovic, who has been constantly connected with a transfer to Manchester United, has hailed previous Old Trafford star Nemanja Vidic.
The Serbian defender, who is reputed to be on out of Fiorentina, has named Vidic as his ‘idol’ and conceded he actually takes motivation from the legend’s documented film. Milenkovic has been emphatically connected with a move away from the Serie A and with his contract set to terminate in under a year and a half time, there seems, by all accounts, to be a race on for his signature.
Notwithstanding the determined connections to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Red Devils, Stretty News as of late guaranteed Italian outfits Juventus, AC Milan, and Napoli are leaders to sign the exceptionally evaluated strong center back.
In any case, that hasn’t halted the 23-year-old from talking affectionately of United.
Milenkovic while talking to Fiorentina.it said: “When I was little, Serbian defender Vidic, who played for Manchester United, was my idol. He was a very strong defender: I still watch the videos of his highlights today.”
The legendary Serbian was an essential piece of Sir Alex Ferguson’s best sides and is generally considered as a top choice. Vidic cooperated with Rio Ferdinand to give United unmatched robustness for a significant stretch of time and it’s protected to say they were the last fruitful defender duo for the club.
Truth be told, it may be contended that those at Old Trafford have neglected to supplant those types of defenders since interest in Milenkovic might actually change that. The example in reports so far has proposed that the Red Devils are enthusiastic about a gifted center back to play close by United defender Harry Maguire.
A few reports have put the youthful defender’s transfer price at as low as £30m and it’s consequently numerous teams that consider him to be the most reasonable alternative for their teams.
Notwithstanding, he doesn’t appear to be United’s outright need with different names, for example, Raphael Varane apparently higher up on the rundown.
Man United fans – Do you consider Milenkovic would be qualified for this current United side?
