Journalist claims Milan are ‘scouting’ PAOK defender with €10m price tag

AC Milan will be looking to bolster the squad with a centre-back in January amid the injuries of Pierre Kalulu and Marco Pellegrino. One of the names on their list is Konstantinos Koulierakis, according to a report. 

Stefano Pioli was forced to replace both Kalulu and Pellegrino in the 2-2 draw against Napoli, with Theo Hernandez playing as a centre-back for the final minutes. Therefore, the management is looking to reinforce the team during the January window.

According to the Greek journalist Giannis Chorianopoulos, who works for Sportime, Milan are ‘scouting’ the 19-year-old PAOk defender Konstantinos Koulierakis. The Rossoneri have been keeping an eye on him for at least a season back and could perhaps make a move in the near future.

Despite his young age, however, the Greek side have slapped a price tag of €10m on him and this might be too much for Milan. After all, the Rossoneri could also greatly benefit from bringing in a left-back as well and will thus have to work on a budget in January.
