What has been known for days has now received official confirmation – Sergej Milinković-Savic continues his career in Saudi Arabia. The Serbian footballer signed a contract with Al Hilalom, and the club boasted photos from that event on social networks. After undergoing medical examinations in Klagenfurt, SMS put their initials on the already agreed terms of cooperation.
In the previous days, it was written that the complete work will amount to almost 150 million euros, and when you take into account that Lazio will receive about 40 million in compensation, it is clear how much goes to the account of the Serbian footballer. It is believed that Sergej signed a multi-year contract, maybe even for four and a half years, so for that period of time he could receive almost 100 million euros, or about 20 million euros per season!
