Manchester United have been linked with Serbian international and Lazio star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic for quite some time and the latest reports are intriguing.
According to a report covered by Express, Jose Mourinho is readying a club record bid worth 95 million pounds ($127million) to sign the 22-year-old midfielder for Manchester United next summer.
Last year, United broke their club transfer record to lure Paul Pogba from Juventus and this year, the Red Devils splashed the cash to sign Matic from Chelsea.

The likes of Fellaini and Carrick are expected to leave United at the end of this season and Jose will need quality and depth in the center of the park for next season. Therefore, signing Sergej makes complete sense.
The former Genk star is a versatile talent, who is mainly a creative central midfielder but can also operate effectively in the attacking midfield.
This season, the Serbian star has so far netted 5 goals and provided 2 assists in 18 appearances for the Serie A side. He made his senior international debut last month and has so far featured twice for Serbia.
As per the provided Express link, the likes of Man City and Juve have been interested in Sergej as well but at the moment United are leading the race to sign him.
