Repubblica: Maldini wants PSG defender on loan to replace Romagnoli at Milan

Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara are looking for a centre-back on the market to replace Alessio Romagnoli, whose contract with AC Milan has expired. They have set their sights on PSG man, a report claims. 

After missing out on Sven Botman, who was their No.1 target for a long time, it seems Milan will opt for a cheaper solution for the defence. The remaining cash will be used to make even better reinforcements for the attack.

According to La Repubblica (via MilanNews), Maldini’s primary target for the defence is Abdou Diallo. The Senegalese international is expected to leave Paris Saint-German this summer to get more playing time and Milan could be the destination.

Milan want him on a loan with an option to buy, per the report, and it remains to be seen if the French side will accept this. Soon, the Rossoneri could accelerate the negotiations and try to close the deal.
