Stefano Pioli has asked the management to sign an attacking midfielder this summer, and preferably one that also can play to the right in the attacking trio. De Ketelaere, with his versatility and quality, fits the bill perfectly.

According to The Athletic, Milan are in pole position in the race for the Club Brugge star. Leeds and Leicester have also expressed their interest in the last few weeks but De Ketelaere’s preferred destination, per the report, is Milan. And as said, the latter like the player a lot.

Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara, the directors of the Rossoneri, have renewed their contracts and they will now begin the work on the mercato. It remains to be seen if they will make an official move for De Ketelaere, especially if the rumours of a €35-40m price tag are true.
