Newcastle to try again for Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic

Newcastle United are chasing a deal for Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.

Il Corriere dello Sport says Newcastle have prioritised a move for the Serbia international this summer.

Milinkovic-Savic's contract with the Serie A side lasts until 2024, which could force Lazio president Claudio Lotito's hand.

The midfielder is rated in the 35m class by Lotito.

The Magpies tried for SMS in January and will make a new attempt this summer.
