AC Milan reportedly prefer a move for Fiorentina’s Pietro Comuzzo over Giovanni Leoni to replace Malick Thiaw.
The Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews, report that the Rossoneri are not inclined to rival Inter Milan and Newcastle for Leoni even after selling Thiaw.
AC Milan are reportedly on the verge of selling defender Malick Thiaw to Newcastle United.
The Rossoneri will receive a fee of around €40 million for the German international.
And this could have major knock-on effects elsewhere in the transfer market.
Clearly, if Milan complete the deal to sell Thiaw, they will move for a replacement.
One name that has been linked with Milan for some time is defender Giovanni Leoni. The 19-year-old is highly sought-after, with both Inter and Liverpool also keen.

According to the Gazzetta dello Sport, however, Milan are wary of the high valuation of Leoni.
Parma reportedly want at least €40 million for the teenage defender.
Therefore, even if Milan bring in a fee in that region for Thiaw, they’re not planning to reinvest it all in a deal for Leoni.
Instead, the Gazzetta report, the Rossoneri are keen on Fiorentina defender Pietro Comuzzo.
The 20-year-old would have a price tag of around €30 million.
