AC Milan directors Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara are always keeping an eye on several profiles all over Europe as the hunt for a defender who can replace Simon Kjaer (who is injured) is still ongoing.
There is not just Sven Botman, but also other important names in this transfer market window. The Dutch defender of Lille is a difficult target to sign due to the high price which Lille is requesting.
The alternative profile, according to what is reported by Tuttosport, is Japhet Tanganga who is Tottenham's flexible defender.
According to the source, Tottenham would be asking for a fee of 25 million euros in order to sell him to AC Milan. A loan move does not seem a possiblity for the Premier League side. From the Rossoneri managers, however, there has only been an exploratory poll.
The English centre-back, 22, may even be used as a right-back when necessary. So far with the spurs this season, he has managed to appear in 15 matches (9 Premier League fixtures, while 3 others were in the Conference League and the remaining 3 matches were in the EFL Cup competition).
