Milan's Niang close to Genoa

By Football Italia staff

Sky Sport Italia claim Milan will loan striker M’Baye Niang to Genoa.

The 20-year-old has never scored a Serie A goal for the Rossoneri, netting just once in the Coppa Italia from 38 games in all competition.

Niang has also been linked with Udinese, but Genoa have a very strong rapport with Milan and completed numerous transfers over recent years.

The Grifone are in dire need of a forward, as Mauricio Pinilla went to Atalanta and Alessandro Matri is out injured for six weeks.
