One of Lazio's star midfielders, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, is reportedly ready to experience a new adventure and has an eye on Arsenal as his next destination.

According to the report from Corriere dello Sport, it is revealed that there was a meeting between the president of Biancoceleste, Claudio Lotito, and the agent of the Serbian midfielder, Mateja Kezman, however, there was no progress made in the negotiation of a new contract for Milinkovic-Savic.

Kezman confirmed Milinkovic-Savic's desire to try something new, he also revealed that the star midfielder does not want to leave The Aquile on a free transfer and instead prefers a lucrative sale in the summer to ensure the club has funds to come up with from his sale.

Arsenal is reportedly monitoring his progress. The Aquile are now hoping for a Premier League approach in the coming months.

According to the most recent information, the Italian capital club offered a new contract with a net salary of 5 million Euros, but this was not the case.
