Lazio star Milinkovic-Savic reveals his dream of playing for Real Madrid

Milinkovic-Savic has been one of Serie A best players over the past few years and the Serbian says he'd even prefer to face Real Madrid in the Champions League just to swap shirts with their players.

"I have dreamed of playing for Real Madrid since I was a child. This is my career goal and I hope to be able to achieve it," Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic has told Serbian TV Nova.

"To tell the truth, I would have preferred to face Real Madrid [in the Champions League last 16] to swap shirts with some players. I think, however, that we can have a good match against Bayern," the Serbian added.

Wow, this is a big statement from one of the best Serie A players. The central midfielder's style of play may be compared to the one of Toni Kroos – the 25-year-old is good at creating chances and also loves shooting from long range.

The player was linked with the Santiago Bernabeu arrival last summer.

This season, the Serbian has got 4 goals and 5 assists in 24 appearances for Lazio in all competitions.
