Agent of Lazio star Sergey Milinkovic-Savic has revealed why the player put pen to paper on a new deal at the biancocelesti.

The Serbian had been linked with a move away from Lazio this past summer, as Real Madrid, Manchester United, Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea were interested in him. Earlier today though, Lazio confirmed that the midfielder has extended his contract at the club.

Milinkovic-Savic's agent Mateja Kezman was talking exclusively to Calciomercato and he revealed why the player took the decision of signing a new deal at the club.

He said: 'Lazio, Sergei and my agency are happy with the new contract. We wan to go forward with positive energy.

The club gave a demonstration of strength because it has armored almost all the players of last season, has a serious project and wants to play the Champions League. Everyone must concentrate and do their best in every game to make all Lazio fans happy."

Milinkovic-Savic has appeared in six Premier League games so far this season, scoring once and assisting once.
