Arsenal has been handed a boost in their bid to add Sergej Milinkovic-Savic to their squad as Lazio gives up on keeping the Serbian in Rome.
Milinkovic-Savic has been one of the finest midfielders in European football for some time, but Lazio has continued to price him out of a move away from the club.
The 27-year-old is now in the last 18 months of his deal with The Eagles and senses he must join a bigger club before its too late.
Corriere dello Sport reported last month that Arsenal has an interest in his signature and the Gunners will do their best to land him.
A report on Calciomercato now reveals the Serbian’s present employers have given up on retaining him and will seek to sell him for a fee in the summer.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Milinkovic-Savic will bring expertise and experience to our midfield if we add him to Mikel Arteta’s squad at the end of this term.
The midfielder has proven over the last few terms that he is a terrific player and his contract situation guarantees that Arsenal can add him to their squad cheaply.
However, the Gunners need to act fast to avoid losing him to another suitor because several clubs want him.

This is one rumor that seems to be building up steam and frankly I don’t mind it one bit.
One could argue he isn’t the perfect player to play in Partey position, no many players are in my opinion, but he could be tweak to plug such a gap his passing abilities would be a massive upgrade on Lonkango and Eleney, he indeed he is one of those powerful midfielder that improve us instantly
This is a statement signing I sanction without hesitation.
But Newcastle has jumped into the mix with a proposal that neither Lazio nor nor Milinkovic can reject for Arsenal. All these clubs are on the wings waiting to spoil Arsenal deals instead of scouting themselves
He’s gonna have an awkward relationship with Xhaka JS
He is a class player but the question is will Arsenal be able to afford him. They are asking for a huge transfer fee for him. That said, I hope Arsenal gets him and a striker this transfer window to keep our title push moving on.
Slow response to transfer targets will cost Arsenal premier league title
Am tired of arsenal sluggishness in the transfer market.
Go for a player you want, pay and move on. Why waste time on one for 1-2 weeks only to loss out.
Interest everywhere, none to buy.
The next thing you hear is that, no one is arriving.
So flabbergasting
