The priority seems to be adding at least one new defender and in this sense, Matteo Gabbia is closing in on a return to the San Siro as his loan spell should be ended prematurely.
The planning of strategies, however, are underway even in view of the summer transfer session.
According to what is reported by those at Calciomercato.com, the AC Milan club management is working to secure the free transfer of 25-year-old centre-back Lloyd Kelly.
His contract with Premier League side Bournemouth expires at the end of the current season. He stands at 190 centimetres tall and is left-footed. He can play also as a left-back if necessary. So far this season, he played a total of 727 minutes in 10 matches.
