Before the start of the new season, Franck Kessié left AC Milan as a free agent as he was convinced by those at FC Barcelona to don their shirt and seek a new adventure there in Spain. The Rossoneri management, for their part, have tried to secure the arrival of Renato Sanches, but the attempts were not successful as Paris Saint-Germain were the ones to land him instead.
Paolo Maldini and Frederic, therefore, focused on other targets and signed VfL Wolfbsurg's midfielder Aster Vranckx on loan with an option to buy. The player in question is Belgian and 19 years old. But, it seems that the Italian champions are still looking for another profile in that area of the pitch.
In fact, according to what is reported by The Sun, AC Milan and Juventus are set to have a mercato duel for Aston Villa's Brazilian defensive midfielder who is 24 years old: Douglas Luiz. The player's current contract with the Premier League club expires in June 2023, as relayed by Calciomercato.com.
