The former AC Milan left-back Andrea Bozzolan has attracted the interest of Torino, who could make a move already in January, according to a report.
Bozzolan is a name that many Milan fans will recognise, seeing as he featured for the first team during some friendlies and also played for the Futuro last season. However, despite being highly rated when he first broke through, he never really found his stride with the Rossoneri.

As such, after what was an average season with the Futuro side, Milan agreed to sell Bozzolan to Reggiana on a permanent basis last season. There was no transfer fee involved, or at least it was minimal, as the Rossoneri included a 50% resale clause instead.
Torino considering January move
With the above in mind, Milan are watching on with great interest as things stand. The 21-year-old has impressed with Reggiana in Serie B and has thus caught the interest of Torino, who are looking to strengthen their left-hand side.
According to today’s edition of Tuttosport (via Torino Granata), Torino have had scouts to watch the former Milan man multiple times. Il Toro could even make a move during the January transfer window, as the report continues, which has the Rossoneri watching on with great interest.
The transfer fee likely won’t be too high, but with two goals and two assists in eleven Serie B appearances this season, 50% could still be a nice contribution for Milan.
Use the 50% to buy him in January transfer and loan him to Torino for two season.
Sell Estupian and bring Bozollan in to compete with Bertasaghi
Torino really doesn’t have any incentive to agree upon such deal as they would just be developing one of our players while they could pick a different option in the market. If they buy himself its a different matter and Torino are probably fairly dependent on developing and reselling players as they rarely plays in Europe.
Wouldn’t it have been better to keep our player, raised by us, Bozzolan and not to have given him up so easily. In his place for Milan Futuro we brought a no name without any value and talent, a certain Berkay Karaca.
It seems that the management of this club really loves foreign players more.
