AC Milan are currently more keen on signing Riccardo Calafiori to be backup to Theo Hernandez than Pasquale Mazzocchi, a report claims.
As has been reported by Tuttosport (via Milan News), the Rossoneri are keen to sign a new left-back once they have sold Fode Ballo-Toure and there is a hierarchy with the targets.
It is looking increasingly likely that Ballo-Toure will soon be securing a move to Werder Bremen as he agreed on personal terms with the Bundesliga side on Monday.
There are two players that Milan are looking very seriously at, but they are favouring Calafiori who currently plays for FC Basel.
It is not clear exactly when Calafiori is preferred to Salernitana’s Mazzocchi, but it could be down to how well he performed in the Europa Conference League last season, helping Basel reach the semi-finals.
Both players are Italian which is beneficial when it comes to registration rules.
