AC Milan have identified an alternative to Renato Sanches, if a deal fails to go through. We are talking about Douglas Luiz, 24-year-old Brazilian defensive midfielder of Aston Villa.

Calciomercato.com cite English press as they explain why seeing AC Milan signing the player in question would be difficult.
According to the source, the player is seriously considering the possibility of staying at Aston Villa for another year and then leaving when his contract expires, thus securing a move elsewhere on a Bosman.
