Arsenal lead the race for Milinkovic Savic

Top-level clubs are in the race for the signing of Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. However, Lazio are holding firm and resisting to retain one of their key players.

Nothing could be further from the truth, the Serbian midfielder has not finished renewing his contract and his departure is becoming more and more likely. What's more, according to 'Il Corriere dello Sport', Arsenal are the club that are closest to signing him.

The same media outlet reported that the Gunners are in the pole position to sign Milinkovic-Savic, as it is a destination very close to the player's heart.

Furthermore, Lazio are also rubbing their hands together, even if the objective is to keep him, as Arsenal have a good financial situation.
