Sky: Milan find agreement with Real Madrid over signing of playmaker – his arrival is close

AC Milan have reached an agreement with Real Madrid over a deal for playmaker Brahim Diaz, according to a report.

While operations such as the return of Tiemoue Bakayoko from Chelsea and the renewal of Zlatan Ibrahimovic seem to be dragging on, it appears that Milan have swooped quickly to bolster their creative department.

After initial reports that the Rossoneri are keen on Brahim Diaz, Gianluca Di Marzio has told Sky (via MilanNews) that Milan are in fact very close to signing Brahim Diaz.

He claims that the club already have an agreement with Real Madrid on the basis of a loan with option to buy, and now they are negotiating personal terms with the 21-year-old.

Meanwhile, Fabrizio Romano is also reporting that Milan are close to finding an agreement with Real Madrid for Brahim, and confirms it will be a loan with option to buy. Milan hope to finalise the agreement soon.
