Tchatchoua latest right back on Milan radar | OneFootball

Milan are the latest club showing an interest in Verona right-back Jackson Tchatchoua, but face strong competition from Nottingham Forest, Inter and Napoli.

The Rossoneri would seem to have found their new left-back to replace Theo Hernandez, with multiple sources this evening suggesting a deal has been done with Brighton and Hove Albion for Pervis Estupinan at just under €20m.

They are also in dire need of someone on the right, having released Kyle Walker, Alessandro Florenzi and Davide Calabria this summer.

Tchatchoua attracting attention

According to Tuttomercatoweb, the latest candidate is Hellas Verona’s Tchatchoua, who is set to celebrate his 24th birthday in September.

It will not be an easy task, because the Cameroon international has been attracting a great deal of attention already this month, including within Serie A from Inter and Napoli.

The biggest competition for Milan could be from Nottingham Forest, who already saw a €10m proposal rejected and are expected to raise their next bid to €12m.

Tchatchoua made 36 Serie A appearances for Verona last season, scoring two goals and providing three assists.
