CM: Celtic star remains a target for Milan sporting director Massara but not Maldini – the latest

AC Milan still have Celtic defender Kristoffer Ajer on their list of targets but he is currently dividing the opinion of the management.

The Rossoneri were heavily linked with a move for Ajer throughout the summer window and continue to be tipped to move for a number of targets given their eventual failure to bring in a new centre-back.

MilanNews24 recently reported how the Norwegian defender remains in the sights of Milan but the €30million asking price represents an obstacle, though some proceeds from the sales of Musacchio or Duarte could be put towards.

According to what Calciomercato.com’s Daniele Longo is reporting (via @ACMilan_FR), Ajer is still on the list of central defenders who are of interest to Milan, but he is not a first choice.

The 22-year-old is a very popular profile for sporting director Ricky Massara, but technical director Paolo Maldini is not quite as keen as his colleague and it seems other targets are a priority.
