Last summer, when Milan were looking for a right-back, Doue was one of the main targets and an offer was even put on the table. In the end, the Rossoneri were unable to reach an agreement with Strasbourg and decided to sign Zachary Athekame instead.
As is often the case, however, just because you don’t sign a player doesn’t mean he gets crossed off the wish list. Indeed, recent reports suggest that Milan have rekindled their interest in the full-back, who potentially could arrive this summer.
Doue back in fashion
According to today’s edition of Tuttosport (via MilanNews), Milan have already been in talks with the entourage of Doue, who has made it clear that he would love a move to the Rossoneri. The problem, just like last time, is the price tag of around €30-40m.
In addition to the transfer fee, Inter are also keeping an eye on the 23-year-old and could pose a threat in the race, especially if they were to miss out on Anan Khalaili. For now, though, there is head-to-head as neither side has opened talks with Strasbourg.
