Sky UK: Milan again battling Man Utd for major summer target – the details | OneFootball

AC Milan face competition from Manchester United to sign another one of their summer transfer targets in Youssouf Fofana, according to a report.

The Diavolo and the Red Devils went head-to-head for Zirkzee a few weeks ago, before Geoffrey Moncada and Giorgio Furlani decided to freeze the negotiations once it became clear his agent wanted €15m in commissions in order to close the deal.

According to what is being reported by Sky Sports UK, United intend to keep Scott McTominay despite interest from Fulham and Galatasaray, and they also wish to add another piece to the department.

Talks are ongoing with PSG over Uruguay international Manuel Ugarte but there is a gap at present between what United think he is worth and what the Parisians would be willing to sell for.

Sky state that Fofana is ‘another player the club are looking at’ – who has been linked extensively with Milan – but another route is making Sofyan Amrabat’s loan deal a permanent one, even if they will not pay his €20m option to buy.

There is still a chance that players leave to make room but Casemiro – who was of interest to Saudi clubs – now seems more likely to stay. A departure later in the window ‘cannot be ruled out’, though.
