#1 Sergej Milinkovic-Savic (SS Lazio)
Age: 23
Height: 1.92m
Nationality: Serbia
"The Sergeant", as he is known by his teammates, Milinkovic-Savic seems to be the one who will dominate headlines this summer. The box-to-box midfielder is said to be valued at around £80 million which suggests just how highly he is rated.
The Lazio midfielder has flourished under Simone Inzaghi this season and been contributing all over the pitch - goals, assists, creating chances for the forward line, putting in tackles and recovering lost balls. The towering number 8 has been wowing the Lazio faithful with his displays.
With 14 goals and 6 assists in all competitions this season, Milinkovic-Savic is the perfect midfield sentry to partner with a defensive minded midfielder and given his adeptness at fulfilling both offensive and defensive duties.
Savic has been heavily linked with Manchester United and with Mourinho planning an overhaul of the midfield this summer, the Portuguese manager would love to have a player like him play alongside his countryman, Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba in a powerful, three-man midfield.
However, there are also rumours of interest from Real Madrid, Italian champions Juventus and Ligue 1 winners Paris St. Germain, all of which would also benefit greatly from signing the former Genk midfielder.
