Multiple clubs in Saudi Arabia are reportedly interested in making a move for outgoing Lazio star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic this summer.

The 28-year-old midfielder only has a year left on his contract with the Biancocelesti and won’t pen a new deal, prompting the club and his agent Mateja Kezman to look around for adequate offers.

The top sides in Italy – Milan, Juventus and Inter – are all interested in Milinkovic-Savic but none have submitted concrete offers yet, leaving things wide open as the opening of the summer transfer window approaches.

As reported by Il Messaggero (via LazioNews24), multiple unnamed Saudi sides have expressed their interest in Milinkovic-Savic, but none have submitted an offer yet. Claudio Lotito expects some offers to arrive in the coming weeks.

Kezman discussed the situation to 365Scores Arabic (via TMW), where he confirmed the interest in Saudi Arabia.

For Sergej there have been many expressions of interest from Saudi Arabia, but at the moment we have other options on the table. Does this mean he won’t play in Arabia next year? We’ll see, in life you never know.

Milinkovic-Savic scored nine goals and provided eight assists in 36 Serie A appearances this season.
