Sky: Milan launch first bid worth €25m for Roma forward – the latest

Contact and a bid has been made between the agent of AS Roma attacker Nicolo Zaniolo and AC Milan who are contemplating a loan move for the Italian, a report claims.

As has been reported by Sky Sport Italia (via Milan News), the Rossoneri appear to be very serious about trying to bring Zaniolo to the club as long as it is under the right circumstances.

Milan would be willing to take Zaniolo on loan for the rest of the season with a mandatory redemption of €25 million as long as the Rossoneri qualify for the Champions League.

That valuation is still far from the €40 million that Roma have been requesting so far, but it is a strong opening from Milan. It is known that Zaniolo would rather stay in Italy than move abroad at this stage.

A meeting could take place in the very near future as Milan are in Rome to face Lazio on Tuesday night.
