Another source is reporting that AC Milan are interested in signing Tiago Gabriel from Lecce, but the asking price is already high.
According to Tuttosport (via MilanNews), the plan is to sign a promising young central defender in addition to a ready-to-use player in that role. One name that Milan are very keen on is Tiago Gabriel, who is having an excellent season in a struggling Lecce side.
Serious interest
Milan clearly like what they have seen from the Portuguese defender, who has already been viewed on several occasions by scouts that gave their approval. In recent weeks, the Rossoneri executives have also initiated contact with Gabriel’s agents too.
He is described as a ‘major target’ by the paper. However, there is a major obstacle to overcome: Lecce’s high asking price, starting with a €30m valuation, after yet another winning bet from the Giallorossi general manager Pantaleo Corvino.
It won’t be easy to convince the Apulian club to lower their demands, especially since Milan are not the only club pursuing the 21-year-old. Brentford are ready to try again after a failed attempt in January, when they offered €17m plus €3m in bonuses.
Nottingham Forest have also inquired in recent days, sending a scout on Monday to watch him live in the match against Fiorentina. So, it seems as though the main competition to overcome is from the Premier League.

Si camarda now just a used toy to be thrown away?
Maybe end of this season will be direct swap Gabriel & camarda…
Gila and Tiago would be ideal.
Gila and Diomande would be the perfect scenario
Muharemovic Gila would be ideal.
He is ok but Muharemovic should be top target. Ahead of Gila.
Muharemovic is same type like Gila,
i think we need someone like Gabbia (a leader & smart) it’s another Sassuolo CB Idzes, Tomo & Pav play better when there’s Gabbia, Muharemovic look better since playing w/ Idzes
Idzes + rizki ridhi would be better…
Gila price its more high, thats why they turn to Gabriel.
