FootMercato: Milan readying offer for Newcastle winger Saint-Maximin

Another report has emerged claiming that AC Milan are keen on signing winger Allan Saint-Maximin from Newcastle United before the window closes.

According to FootMercato journalist Santi Aouna, the Milan management are interested in signing the 25-year-old Saint-Maximin and are readying a loan bid to sign him before the window shuts.

Newcastle have had an excellent season so far and are challenging for a top four spot but Saint-Maximin has struggled with injuries and has started in just four games out of the 12 Premier League appearances he has made this season.

Moreover, there are widespread rumours that Newcastle are in talks to sign winger Anthony Gordon from Everton who could well further reduce the game time available to Saint-Maximin if he were to arrive.

The report adds that Milan are preparing a bid for Saint-Maximin which would be a loan with an option to buy at the end of the season, but talks are also ongoing over a deal for Nicolò Zaniolo of Roma.
