CM.it: Milan eyeing Liverpool midfield duo – €120m deal could bring green light

AC Milan are looking to strengthen their midfield and they currently have their eye on two Liverpool players, according to a report.

According to Calciomercato.it, Liverpool are interested in Jude Bellingham and could be willing to sanction an outlay of €120m to beat the competition from clubs such as Real Madrid in order to win the race for the talented Englishman.

Jurgen Klopp has put Bellingham at the top of his wish list to bolster his options in the middle of the park, believing him to be a perfect fit for his 4-3-3 system, and he is willing to ‘make any sacrifice’ to land him.

Milan need to strengthen the midfield after they lost Franck Kessie in the summer while Yacine Adli and Aster Vranckx have failed to convince so far, so in January or next summer they could turn towards Anfield.

Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara are ready to intervene and the names they have on their list are Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita. Both are on deals due to expire at the end of the season, and both have been included by Klopp among the expendables to get to Bellingham.

Their ‘cut’ by Liverpool could pave the way for Milan to make a move, with the opportunity to sign two midfielders who have international experience and technical quality.
