CorSport: Milan back in for Real Madrid forward but face Arsenal and salary obstacles

By Oliver Fisher -

AC Milan are interested in signing Marco Asensio to bolster their attacking department ahead of the summer but they face an obstacle, a report claims.

This morning’s edition of Corriere dello Sport (via MilanNews) mentions Asensio’s name in relation to being a Milan target once again, just as he has been linked during the last couple of transfer windows.

The Spanish forward has a contract which is set to expire in July and it does not seem that he will renew with Real Madrid, thus leaving him free to agree terms with a club abroad ahead of what would be a free transfer.

Paolo Maldini is following the 27-year-old with interest once again because he is a player he has long sought and feels this could be the right opportunity.

However, he wants €5m net per season and there would be commissions to pay to agent Jorge Mendes, while Arsenal are also interested in signing the three-time Champions League winner.
