Frankie Dijon's persistence has forced United to finally give up on attracting reinforcements and turn their attention to Lazio, with the Red Devils reportedly set to make a £42 million offer for Serbian all-action midfielder Milian Govic Shavic.
Although United have been coveting Dijon for a long time and Barcelona have opened their doors, United can do nothing about it as Dijon himself has no intention of joining them. With the new season approaching, United desperately need to find a similar player, and 27-year-old Milan Govic Savage fits the bill.
Two years ago, during Susquezza's tenure, Manchester United already had their eyes on Milian Kovic, but due to other targets at that time, the plan failed to materialize. Now that United are in desperate need of fresh blood in the midfield, Milian Govic's plan has been put on the agenda once again, and the player's manager has expressed his willingness to cooperate, and is expected to make his first offer to Lazio before August.
Premier League star Kiwi Kimball analyzed that apart from Manchester United, Arsenal and Newcastle are also keeping a close eye on the midfielder's movement. He added: "Tannhäuser is acquainted with Dijon, so he is United's first choice, but if he is unable to sign Dijon, Milian Govic Savage is also a good choice."
