Arsenal most determined to sign Serie A midfielder

Arsenal are most determined to land Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic during this summer's transfer window.

The north London giants have been frequently linked with the Serbian over the past few years and the speculation continues.

It is now claimed that they are most determined to sign him following his decision to turn down a new Lazio contract.

The 28-year-old will enter the final year of his deal this summer and it is claimed that he could be available for €40m.

Arsenal believe they are favourites to land him with Champions League football, but Newcastle United are not far behind.

As per Tuttomercato, the Magpies could be genuine contenders for him if they qualify for next season's Champions League.

The Tyneside outfit have performed above expectations and they are currently third in the league after 29 games played.

Milinkovic-Savic has had another fine season for Lazio. He has scored eight goals and provided another eight assists in all competitions.
