Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic has said he would be happy to stay with the Biancocelesti amid speculation over a potential transfer to [external-article-link original_href="http://www.goal.com/en-gb/team/juventus/bqbbqm98ud8obe45ds9ohgyrd"]Juventus[/external-article-link], but stopped short of giving any assurances over his future.
The Italian champions are one of a number of clubs reportedly tracking the 23-year-old, who played every minute of Serbia's World Cup group games before their elimination.
After beating Costa Rica in their Group E opener, Serbia suffered defeats to Switzerland and Brazil as they finished third and exited the competition.

Milinkovic-Savic scored 12 goals in 35 appearances as Lazio finished fifth in Serie A in 2017-18, and his emergence under head coach Simone Inzaghi has caught the eye of Europe's top clubs, with [external-article-link original_href="http://www.goal.com/en-gb/team/real-madrid/3kq9cckrnlogidldtdie2fkbl"]Real Madrid[/external-article-link] and [external-article-link original_href="http://www.goal.com/en-gb/team/manchester-united/6eqit8ye8aomdsrrq0hk3v7gh"]Manchester United[/external-article-link] said to be interested in signing him.

"First, I'll rest for a bit, then we'll see."
