Relevo: Milan leading the race for Lyon midfielder as he asks friends about life in Italy | OneFootball

AC Milan are the club that are currently leading the race to sign Houssem Aouar on a free transfer, according to a report.

According to a report from Relevo, Aouar has not yet decided where he will play next season but he knows that he wants to play in the Champions League next season. He has not reached an agreement with any club over a pre-contract, but Milan are currently front of the queue.

The Rossoneri have been in contact with the player’s entourage for months, and were one of the first teams to try to sign him along with Real Betis, and Aouar has already spoken to some of the French players in the squad about living in Milano.

The possible signing of Aouar is linked to the possible departure of Brahim Díaz who is getting closer towards renewing his contract with Real Madrid and returning there. However, Milan will have to fight against fierce competition from Betis and Lazio, as well as potentially teams from the Premier League.
