MN: RB Leipzig, Chelsea and Real Madrid trio on Milan’s shortlist for the No.10 role – the names

Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara have turned their efforts towards replacing Hakan Calhanoglu and an interesting list of targets has emerged, a report claims.

MilanNews writes how Calhanoglu’s move to Inter on a free transfer has created another hole in Stefano Pioli’s squad which must be filled. Pending the resolution of the negotiations for the return of Brahim Diaz from Real Madrid, the Rossoneri now find themselves needing to fill an important gap, namely that of the starting attacking midfielder.

The report adds that many names are being examined by Maldini and Massara, who currently seem to be in no hurry to make a decision on who will take up the No.10 role but rather will be the right choice after consideration.

The first names of the followed profiles begin to emerge, with Real Madrid’s Dani Ceballos, Marcel Sabitzer of RB Leipzig and Hakim Ziyech of Chelsea mentioned by the reliable outlet.
