Mediaset: Milan open talks with Norwich in attempt to halve €15m price tag

AC Milan could bring in a centre-back before the summer ends and they have been linked with several players over the last few weeks. Norwich’s Andrew Omobamidele is one of them and negotiations are reportedly underway. 

The Omobamidele links first appeared back in June when TeamTalk reported that Milan were ready to open talks with Norwich over the 21-year-old. However, it had been rather quiet on that front up until earlier today.

According to Mediaset, as cited by MilanNews, Milan have initiated negotiations with Norwich, who are asking for €15m to part ways with the Irish centre-back. The Rossoneri are only willing to offer half, though, which might be a tough ask.

Just like Fikayo Tomori, Omobamidele is of Nigerian origins and he has impressed at a very young age. Milan are not the only ones interested, per the report, with multiple clubs in Premier League also keeping tabs on the player.

It remains to be seen if an agreement can be reached but it should be noted that the Rossoneri also have other targets on their wish list for that position (such as Maxime Estève).
