MILAN WANT the Torino center back and could offer three players and money to get him according to the media.

Milan have already announced that their first purchase will be a defender as the defense of the Rossoneri has let in a lot of goals this season and has cost the boys of Massimiliano Allegri some points, especially at the start of the season.

Milan have been linked with a number of central defenders, and one of them is Angelo Ogbonna of Torino, who is wanted all over Europe by some top clubs. There are now reports that Milan are taking their interest in him to a new level.

According to SportMediaset, Milan are preparing a bid for Ogbonna who’ll face Milan in two days at Stadio San Siro with Torino. Urbano Cairo is believed to want €15 million for Ogbonna but Milan aren’t willing to match this figure so they could offer €5m in cash plus the other half of Simone Verdi’s ownership, as well as 50% of Gianmario Comi and Marco Fossati.

Mediaset also suggests that Milan have met Ogbonna’s representatives. The 24-year-old is wanted by other Italian teams and big European sides as well. “I’ve trained alongside Ogbonna with the national side,” Giampaolo Pazzini told the paper Tuttosport. “He is the prototype of the modern defender – a great physique, but also good technique. He likes to bring the ball out of defence with his head held high. He’s a young guy too and I believe that he could play for any side.”

Milan are also set to sign Jherson Vergara Amú (19 soon, central defender) who’s expected to have medical check-ups today. He’ll sign the contract at the end of the month. Gazzetta reports Zapata will be bought up and Yepes will leave.
