Milan are currently focusing on three names in particular to bolster their roster, Brest’s Lilian Brassier, Aston Villa’s Jhon Duran, and Verona’s Filippo Terracciano. All three are keen on joining them, but the Rossoneri are having trouble coming to terms with their respective teams, Gianluca Di Marzio and Manuele Baiocchini relay.
As for the French defender, Monaco offered €11M, and Porto are after him as well. He’d favor a move to Serie A, but his side wants a decent sum in return. In addition, they’d like to sell and keep him until the end of the season, while the Italian club would like to bring him in right away.
At this stage, Milan are trying to sign Brassier and Duran on initial loans, while they have lodged a bid to acquire Terracciano permanently. Verona need the cash, and a few other outfits are in the running too. The Rossoneri are hoping Aston Villa will accept such a formula and agree to insert an option to buy. The deal will enter its key stages next week.
The 20-year-old striker has scored 4 times in 21 appearances this season. He was purchased from the Chicago Fire FC for €16.5M last January. He’d be thrilled to switch sides as Zlatan Ibrahimovic is his idol.
Our Take on Milan, Brassier, Terracciano, and Duran
It’s noteworthy that they have moved on to younger targets after testing the waters for a couple of veterans. The Verona starlet is the most likely to join them.
