AC Milan, still looking for a quality number 10 to replace the exit of Hakan Calhanoglu, has now shown strong interest in Croatian star of CSKA Moscow Nikola Vlasic.
According to the latest report of SportMediaset, the player has an expensive pricetag set by the club: 30 million euros. It is too much for Milan. But, the managers do like him a lot and still want to sign him on their own terms. The transfer formula that would be preferred by Maldini is a loan move.
Therefore, the Russian club must open for a loan deal, or negotiations with AC Milan will not even start.
There are still the usual alternative names for the playmaker role: Hakim Ziyech of Chelsea, Marcel Sabitzer of RB Leipzig and Isco of Real Madrid.
