Manchester United have been given a boost in the chase of Sergej Milinkovic-Savic as Juventus have now withdrawn from the race for the midfielder’s signature.

The Serbia international has been claimed to be a player who is considering a move away from Lazio this summer and therefore, Jose Mourinho is likely to have stepped up his pursuit of him, even after the arrival of Fred.

Manchester Evening News, are reporting that Juventus have failed with an offer for Milinkovic-Savic, who has a price tag of $116.3million (£88million).

Juventus were considered the favourites to land the 22-year-old at one point, and the Old Lady’s withdrawal from the transfer race means United have a clearer path towards signing Milinkovic-Savic.

Italian outlet Tuttosport have also reported that the Red Devils have been handed the chance to move for the Serbian international after Juventus’ failure to lure the player.
