As has been claimed by French newspaper L’Equipe (via Daniele Longo), there is interest in the Bosnian midfielder from Lyon who are trying to get their season back on track.
Despite being one of France’s most notable sides, they are currently down in 15th and need to add some more quality to their squad if they are to climb up the ranks.
It has seemed for a long time that Krunic will not be staying at Milan beyond the January transfer window, but Fenerbahce in Turkey has seemed like the favoured destination.
They were trying to sign him in the summer but could not strike a deal with Milan, but a move is a lot more plausible in the next month.
The fact that two clubs would like to sign Krunic might allow Milan to squeeze and extra million or so euros from the deal, but neither club would be willing to pay the sorts of figures that were discussed in the summer (€15m).
Milan have been linked with Real Betis’ Guido Rodriguez as a potential replacement.
