AC Milan is interested in securing a backup for Theo Hernandez, as per reports. The French player is currently positive to Covid-19 is set to miss some future matches.
AC Milan and West Ham United have sounded out a move for out-of-favour Barcelona left-back Junior Firpo. The Spanish club, in fact, is open to letting the player leave and are looking at possible replacements for the player, if he departs this month.
Milan are looking to bring in backup for Theo, with Diogo Dalot their only alternative at left-back, to strengthen their squad. The Rossoneri managers have enquired about taking Junior on loan, although Barca, in need of money, would rather let him leave on a permanent deal.
West Ham would be willing to buy Junior Firpo, who cost Barcelona around €20 million but they cannot guarantee him first team action. Junior, 24, wants to leave having found regular football hard to come by but Barca are reluctant to let him go without first lining up a replacement. This was reported by ESPN.
