SM: Milan begin talks over potential late move for Fiorentina striker

AC Milan have begun contacts over a potential last-minute swoop for Luka Jovic having hit a wall in their pursuit of Rafa Mir, we have learned.

It has been a rollercoaster 24 hours for Milan who have gone from having a deal wrapped up for Mehdi Taremi and then Patson Daka to trying to get Mir in from Sevilla, and they have even hit a roadblock in those talks too.

According to what is being reported by our colleague Luca Maninetti of SempreMilan.it, the Mir track has now become ‘very complicated’ because Sevilla have been unable to find a replacement for the Spaniard.

As a result, talks have begun to examine the possibility of getting a deal for Jovic done before the window closes in two hours (at the time of writing).

The Serbian striker is no longer part of Vincenze Italiano’s plans at Fiorentina and thus could arrive via an advantageous formula.
