AC Milan are looking for talented profiles to bolster the quality of the squad that would be available to coach Stefano Pioli in view of the 2022/2023 season.
One of the departments that definitely needs to be strengthened is the defence and the centre-back position in particular. With Alessio Romagnoli's future not certain due to his contractual situation, the team does need a defender. A profile which is heavily talked about is Lille's Sven Botman. But, there is not only the Dutchman on the radar of Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara.
In the summer, Gianluca Di Marzio anticipated the news that linked Montpellier's Maxime Esteve with a move to the San Siro. As per Calciomercato.com, La Liga side Sevilla are now in the race to try and secure the 19-year-old player.
The Spanish club, led by sporting director Monchi who was at AS Roma before, are admirers of the player who has a contract with his Ligue 1 outfit Montpellier until June 2024. So far this season, he made 13 appearances with a total of 948 minutes played.
