Longo: Milan’s interest in Santos winger confirmed but operation is ‘difficult’

AC Milan are making some moves on the mercato, having secured the arrival of Devis Vasquez, and a right-winger could also arrive. In fact, the Rossoneri are interested in Santos man Angelo Gabriel. 

Earlier today, L’Equipe broke the news about Milan’s interest in the Santos winger Gabriel. At the age of 18, he has already made an impressive 97 appearances for the first team and the Rossoneri have placed an offer of €15m, bonuses included.

Confirmation of Milan’s interest has now also arrived from Italy, more specifically Daniele Longo. However, the journalist states that it’s a difficult operation for the Rossoneri to pull off due to the economic demands of Santos.

Gazzetta Dello Sport reported earlier today that Vasquez would take the last non-EU spot but that report has since been changed to simply ‘one non-EU spot’. In short, the signing of Gabriel would be possible as well in that regard.
