According to Calciomercato.com, the scouting department for the Rossoneri are always active and are constantly compiling reports on the best young profiles both domestically but also at an international level, and that is how the 17-year-old Coulibaly has ended up on their radar.
The teenager has been compared to Real Madrid’s Eduardo Camavinga as he is a left-footed players who is technically very good and with a good physical structure. The Rossoneri management are strongly convinced by his talent and have intensified contacts with his entourage to try and close.
There is a good chance of seeing him at Milanello next season as per the report because Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara presented their ambitious project which provides for a gradual inclusion in the first team and working with Stefano Pioli.
Coulibaly is fascinated and he knows that there are many French players at Milan who could help him integrate quickly. Manchester City and Tottenham are also keen but have not gone to the same lengths to convince Coulibaly, who has asked for time because he has not yet decided whether to leave Monaco so young.
A final decision will not be made until the end of April when he turns 18 but Milan can rest easy knowing they have taken important steps and are waiting with confidence.
