AC Milan are working on a number of different options for the centre-back position and it seems that the focus at the moment is on Premier League targets.
According to Sky, the management want to give Pioli another central defender after Matteo Gabbia’s early return and they are looking to England after their attempts to sign Torino defender Alessandro Buongiorno did not get very far.
The Rossoneri are hoping for a loan to see them through until the end of the season, with three names standing out at the moment: Clement Lenglet, Jakub Kiwior and Trevoh Chalobah.
Lenglet is a difficult target to sign because he is owned by Barcelona but on loan at Aston Villa. It will not be easy to convince the Midlands club, because the Frenchman has played the last four games as a starter after being a reserve.
Kiwior of Arsenal is liked because he was formerly at Spezia and therefore already knows the Italian league well, while Chalobah of Chelsea is a profile they have been keen on in the past and who hasn’t played much this year due to various physical problems.
An attempt was also made for Caglar Soyuncu, who was also sought by Roma, but he has chosen to go to join up with Rade Krunic, Leonardo Bonucci and Edin Dzeko’s Fenerbahce.
