AC Milan managers Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara are targeting some improvements for the squad of Stefano Pioli as the aim is to be able to compete at a higher leve especially in the Champions League. For that, a club needs quality and depth. The directors of the Rossoneri team are eyeing up, therefore, two important profiles in Renato Sanches and Sven Botman who are teammates at Lille. But the deals are at risk, it seems.
According to what is reported by Tuttosport (who confirmed what Carlo Pellegatti had said previously), it seems that there are some internal conflicts in the French club's board of directors. Lille, controlled by Merlyn Partners investment fund, may be on the way to relieve the club president Olivier Létang. This could result, for AC Milan, in slowing down the process of purchasing their two stars Sven Botman and Renato Sanches.
