Agent of Bayer Leverkusen ‘can confirm Milan’s interest’ but insists client is ‘happy’

The agent of Bayer Leverkusen defender Piero Hincapie has confirmed that AC Milan are interested in his client, but seems to play down the idea of a summer move.

Speaking Sky (via MilanNews) last night, Gianluca Di Marzio reported that the Rossoneri are once again interested in Abdou Diallo of PSG but another player that they really like is Piero Hincapiè of Bayer Leverkusen.

The Ecuador international is a player that the scouting department are following with great attention. He has a very high asking price, but he is a player who is very popular among the management and certainly seems to fit in with the identikit of being young with margins for growth, given he is 20.

Manuel Serra, the agent of Hencapie, gave a short interview with stopandgoal.com regarding the interest of the Rossoneri for the young defender, and he confirmed that they are keen.

“Piero is very happy at the moment at Bayer Leverkusen and in Germany in general. I can confirm Milan’s interest in him, but at the moment we are talking to Bayer to simply understand how to continue to grow together,” he said (via MilanNews).
