Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are both reportedly interested in signing Fiorentina centre-back Nikola Milenkovic during the January transfer window.

The 23-year-old will see his existing deal expire at the end of the 2021-22 campaign, and there was a host of speculation surrounding his future over the summer.

Milenkovic has again been a key player for his Italian club this term - making seven appearances in all competitions - but La Viola could be forced into a sale unless they can commit him to a new contract.

According to Calciomercato, United and Tottenham have both been in touch with Milenkovic's representatives to signal that they are prepared to offer the defender an 'important contract' in January.

The centre-back has already made over 100 appearances for Fiorentina in all competitions, while he has been capped on 23 occasions by the Serbian national team.

West Ham United were linked with his services during the summer transfer window.
