Milinkovic-Savic's father expects Juventus stint before LaLiga transfer

After a promising start to the World Cup, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic has been touted for a move to Real Madrid, however the midfielder's father doesn't think he should leave Serie A just yet.

Lazio are said to want over 100 million euros for the Serbian and Nikola Milinkovic has talked up the possibility of his son joining Juventus.

"Juventus would be the ideal team, perfect for him," Nikola told Tuttosport.

"In Turin, at a club of great prestige that has dominated Calcio for years, he would have the opportunity to grow and improve again, to reach full maturity.

"After three seasons in Rome, Sergej knows Serie A perfectly, he has established himself and integrated in a big way, and has learned the language well.

"And they have high-level players like [Paulo] Dybala, Douglas Costa and more that can win the Scudetto, the Coppa Italia, and make an important contribution to he Champions League. Why not [win it]? Juve always go very far in this competition.

"And if he wins the most prestigious title, Sergej could also aim for the Ballon d'Or."

That said, Nikola believes a switch to LaLiga will be on the cards at some point and he highlighted Zinedine Zidane's career path as one for Milinkovic-Savic to potentially follow.

"He could reach Spain after he's 25 years old [currently aged 23]," noted the player's father.

"He will have completed his footballing maturity in Italy. Just as Zidane did."
