Chelsea target Sergej Milinkovic-Savic is set to land himself a new Lazio deal before work begins for him to join Juventus.
According to reports from Tuttosport, as cited on Football Italia, talks are already being held with Juventus over a move next summer.
The player’s agent, former Chelsea striker Mateja Kezman is reportedly in contact with Jorge Mendes to help with the move.
Milinkovic-Savic was being heavily tipped to leave Lazio this summer, with Juventus, Chelsea and Manchester United all keen on the player.
AC Milan also expressed an interest in the latter stages of the summer window.
The Old Lady had hoped to wrap up a deal for the Serbian midfielder after a standout season with Lazio, but the move to sign Cristiano Ronaldo meant it was not financially viable.
The midfielder is valued at a cool €150 million but that is unlikely to put Juventus off next summer.
