Torino defender Alessandro Buongiorno’s agent has met with the player in Milan as they await the first official offer from AC Milan for his services, a report claims.
As has been reported by Sky Sport Italia (via Pianeta Milan), the Rossoneri appear to have landed on Buongiorno as the ideal centre-back signing to bring more quality depth to the team.
Whilst the club simply needs more bodies at the back, Buongiorno is the sort of player who can force his way into a starting role for Milan and certainly be the long-term replacement for Simon Kjaer.
Torino are never too easy to deal with, though, as president Urbano Cairo is keen not to be deprived of one of his best players midway through what is proving to be a good season for the Granata.
Buongiorno and his agent have not met with Milan yet, they are just seeing if a deal is struck between the two clubs and deciding how they will approach that.
Milan are expected to include Lorenzo Colombo in the deal, and a bid of €25-30m could be sent by the Diavolo in the coming week to get the ball rolling.
Buongiorno has been one of the best defenders in Serie A so far this season.
