AC Milan and Inter appear to face competition from two top clubs in the Premier League in the race for Nikola Milenkovic of Fiorentina.
Fiorentina may be forced to sell both Nikola Milenkovic and German Pezzella as both are on contracts which are set to expire in June 2022 and neither are likely to renew, meaning La Viola will try and raise some funds from their sale while they can.
The Serbia international has been regularly linked with Milan since last summer, but there have been a number of other clubs credited with interest in signing him given the market opportunity.
According to FiorentinaNews, any hope of being able to renew his contract ‘seems to have definitively disappeared’ and a very likely destination for him is the Premier League, with Manchester United and Liverpool in the ‘front row’.
Meanwhile, at the end of the season Pezzella could also leave, with Milan and Roma potentially ready to go back in for him having previously shown an interest.
Fiorentina would like to collect €50m from the two sales combined, but given the tough economic period it might be more like €40m.
