Tuttosport: Milan reignite interest in Atalanta playmaker as they eye Rossoneri midfielder

AC Milan are still interested in signing Atalanta playmaker Josip Ilicic and the Bergamo side are keen on signing Tommaso Pobega, a report claims.

Sky journalist Gianluca Di Marzio (via MilanNews) reported last night that the Primavera product Pobega is of concrete interest to Atalanta but there has not been an official offer made for him just yet from the Bergamo-based club. An asking price of €12m has been set, which would be pure capital gain for the Rossoneri.

According to today’s edition of Tuttosport (via MilanNews), Ilicic has ‘reappeared’ as a target for Milan and Atalanta have replied ‘give us Pobega’. After Hakan Calhanoglu’s decision to leave for Inter, Milan are in search of a playmaker and in the last hours the name of Ilicic is back in fashion.

Atalanta have in turn set histheirsights on Tommaso Pobega, the Milan midfielder who played last season on loan at Spezia, but there is no mention of a swap deal.
