Empoli president Fabrizio Corsi confirmed that Krunic “will play for Milan next season, as we struck a deal for €8m.”

According to Sportitalia‘s Alfredo Pedulla, Paolo Maldini and co. are pushing to sign Napoli’s 28-year-old Portugal international Mario Rui.

Rui – predominantly a left-back – worked with incoming head coach Marco Giampaolo at Empoli before his move to Naples.

Meanwhile, Milan are also interested in Fiorentina midfielder Jordan Veretout – a player who has also been linked with Napoli, Arsenal, Roma, Atalanta and even Paris Saint-Germain.

He amassed five goals and four assists in 37 competitive games for the Viola in 2018-19, and has been quoted as having a €20m price tag.
