Manchester United steps up interest in Fiorentina defender

Manchester United are allegedly still keen on signing Fiorentina centre back Nikola Milenkovic during this present summer’s transfer window.

The Serbia international’s contract with his Italian club is expected to terminate next June, and he has been reliably connected with a move away over the last few months.

A new report asserted that Manchester United had cooled their interest in the 23-year-old as they were interested to seek after different defenders in the impending market.

Nonetheless, as indicated by The Sun, the Red Devils are planning to step up their quest for the central defender in the coming weeks.

The report guarantees that Milenkovic won’t sign another deal with Fiorentina, and the Serie A outfit have set an asking price of £38m.

Liverpool have also recently been credited with an interest in the ex-Partizan youngster, who has scored 3 times and registered one assist in 28 Serie A appearances this season.
