That is the bold claim of Savic’s agent Mateja Kezman, who used to play for Chelsea.
Savic has emerged as a Manchester United target, with Jose Mourinho keen to ease the burden off Pogba.
United are looking at six midfielders at the moment and Savic has turned their heads with his impressive displays for Lazio this season.
And Kezman thinks the 23-year-old is on a different level than Pogba.
“When Sergej came to Italy, he was compared with Pogba, because at that moment it was probably the easiest comparison to make in terms of characteristics,” Kezman told Mozzart Sport.
“I do really respect Pogba, let’s be clear, and other linkers who can run and work for the team, but I think now Sergej has different and better quality than Pogba.”
Kezman has even predicted that Savic could win the Ballon d’Or one day.
He added: “Over the last six months, he has made enormous progress at Lazio. If he retains his health, he can become the most complete player on the planet.
“I’ve played with Arjen Robben, Frank Lampard and some of the best in Europe and I think Sergej can surpass them if he keeps this up.
“He could soon be a candidate for the Ballon d’Or.”
