Manchester United had a £17.6m offer for Lazio midfielder Lucas Biglia turned down, according to Italian newspaper Corriere dello Sport.

The 29 year old has a contract that runs until 2018 and is unlikely to be subject of a second United bid with the Old Trafford club having brought in Bastian Schweinsteiger and Morgan Schneiderlin.

Lazio were thought to be holding out for an offer of about £28m.
