A new name has emerged in Milan’s pursuit of a central defender and he plays in the Turkish league for Fenerbahce, according to a report.
According to this morning’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport (via MilanNews), Milan’s new centre-back could come from France because Lille’s Sven Botman and PSG’s Abdou Diallo are both targets, there is a third option too.
The paper claims that the Rossoneri are interested in signing Attila Szalai, a 23-year-old Hungary international who is currently playing at Fenerbahce and is also admired by Napoli. Like Diallo of PSG, he can play both in the centre and as a full-back if needed.
Szalai becomes just the latest in a long list of names to be linked with Milan which shows that the management are firmly keeping their options open with regards to the profiles they are monitoring and also finding the right deal.

market value is 10m euros if milan makes a move they can lower the price a little but he’ll be cheap compared to other replacements on the list but also comes the risk of not playing in a proven league but milan can easily buy this guy outright and rest of the money can be spent elsewhere like on an attacking midfielder or a proper striker.
But why buy a guy we know next to nothing about. We already have gabbia and kalulu so we better go for Diallo or Botman since we are thinking of someone to replace Kjaer.
Yes, the target should be the likes of Botman, Bremer, or maybe Milenkovic
The guy is chased by Chelsea too which speaks volumes
You not knowing the guy makes him a bad player? And using “we” as in Milan? They know everything about him, he was scouted to perfection, you don’t think they buy players from newspapers or what fans write in comments on articles? 😀 Hahahahah, this is the most genius comment ever. Chelsea already purchased him from what I read and he will join them in Januar, that is how bad of a player he is. Hahahahahaha
