Manchester United target Sergej Milinkovic-Savic has said that he will decide his future after he rests from the stress of the FIFA World Cup in Russia, Sky Sports reports.

Serbia were knocked out of the World Cup after Brazil defeated them by two goals to nothing on Wednesday. He said that he is happy at Lazio and will return to Rome before he makes a decision.

The former Genk midfielder went ahead to say that he has a contract and is content with his situation at the club. There have been reports that Lazio are planning for his departure by trying to sign Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey as his replacement.

Milinkovic-Savic is a goal-scoring midfielder having scored 10 goals in 31 Serie A appearances for Lazio, helping them finish fifth. He has spent four seasons with Lazio, scoring 24 goals in 133 games.

United have already completed the signing of Fred from Shakhtar Donetsk of Ukraine, and the addition of Milinkovic-Savic will further increase United's growing midfield strength.
