Report: £23m colossus who’s held talks with Liverpool and Spurs tells club he wants to leave

Reported Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur target Nikola Milenkovic could be on the move this summer, according to Milan News.

Jurgen Klopp’s Reds and Jose Mourinho’s Spurs were linked with the Fiorentina defender last month, Calciomercato claiming they’ve spoken to the player’s representatives.

Milenkovic has been linked with a move for a number of months now, and with his contract expiring at the end of next season, time is running out for Fiorentina to tie him down to a new deal.

However, the 6ft 5in colossus doesn’t seem to be interested in committing his future to the Viola, if reports are to be believed.

Milan News claims Milenkovic has told club chiefs of his desire to leave in the summer and has instructed his representatives to find him a new club.

The outlet adds that the 23-year-old is keen on a Premier League move and that Manchester United are also interested in his services.

TBR View:

Milenkovic is a top defender, tall and imposing, with plenty of top experience at a young age, and has been compared to Red Devils and Serbia legend Nemanja Vidic.

Liverpool and Spurs have both had their issues at the back this season, and with a reported £23million price tag, he’s relatively affordable for either club.
