Lazio coach Simone Inzaghi said
Friday that Serbia midfielder Sergej Milinković-Savić will be
staying at the Rome side this season despite being linked to
several top European clubs.
"Have I had reassurances from the club about Milinkovic?
Certainly, there is harmony with the club and we talk
constantly," Inzaghi told a news conference ahead of Lazio's
season-opening Serie A game against Napoli on Saturday.
"Milinković is a player who is in demand but this year he'll
still be a Lazio player.
"His departure was a possibility but I spoke to the lad
during the pre-season training camp and I realised the club
wanted to keep him and the player wanted to stay.
"We have a good squad. There's lots of talk about Milinkovic,
but the club was did well to hang on to (forwards Ciro) Immobile
and Luis Alberto too".
