Reports: Galatasaray pushing hard to sign Milan full-back – vice president due in Italy | OneFootball

There are a number of reports suggesting that Fode Ballo-Toure could leave AC Milan after just one season with Galatasaray interested in a move.

According to MilanNews, Ballo-Tourè could well leave Milan this summer as the Senegalese full-back did not convince during his first campaign at the club and he is finding no playing time as the deputy to Theo Hernandez.

Galatasaray have a keen interest in the player and if the former Lille man were to leave, Milan could sign a young full-back (under 21) as a back-up to Theo, one that would be useful for the composition of the squad lists.

According to what was reported by the Turkish press agency Skorercom (via MilanNews), Galatasaray have offered Milan €2.5m for Ballo-Touré but the asking price is €5m, so a loan with option to buy could be agreed.

The destination has been approved by the full-back and the vice president of Galatasaray is expected in Italy in the next few days to try to close the operation.
