Turkish defender Ozan Kabak has been linked with AC Milan once again as a potential depth option after Matteo Gabbia’s departure, a report claims.
As has been reported by La Repubblica (via Pianeta Milan), Milan are assessing a number of options that could provide depth at the back now that Gabbia is gone and Simon Kjaer is continuing to struggle with injuries.
Kabak has been linked with Milan a number of times in the past two-three seasons, but a move has never materialised. He currently plays for Hoffenheim, joining from Schalke after loan spells at Liverpool and Norwich.
Milan’s favoured defensive target right now is Clement Lenglet from Barcelona, but they must make sales for that move to happen and Kabak would almost certainly be a cheaper option, both in terms of transfer fee and player wages.
A central defender and a striker are the two moves that Milan want to make next.
