Saudi: Al-Hilal Signs Serbian Midfielder Milinkovic-Savic
Al-Hilal confirmed the signing of Serbian midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic from Lazio on Wednesday.
Milinkovic-Savic has become the latest addition to Al-Hilal’s star-studded lineup which already includes Portugal midfielder Ruben Neves, André Carrillo and Senegal defender Kalidou Koulibaly.
The four-times Asian Champions League winners said Savic’s contract would run until 2026 without giving any financial details.
The player will join Al-Hilal’s pre-season camp in Austria after passing the medical tests.
The Daily Mail reported that the Saudi club would pay around £34 million for the Serbian midfielder.
Lazio President Claudio Lotito has been vocal about his eagerness to keep the 28-year-old but the player has angled for a move since January.
