Tuttosport reports Bournemouth are unwilling to sell Lloyd Kelly in the January transfer window, but the 26-year-old could still join Milan on a free transfer alongside Tosin Adarabioyo at the end of the season.
The Rossoneri are on the lookout for another new centre-back in the winter transfer window following Matteo Gabbia’s return from his loan spell at Villarreal.
Wednesday’s printed edition of Tuttosport newspaper on page 21 claims Milan continue monitoring Bournemouth defender Lloyd Kelly, but the Premier League side are unwilling to sell him this month.
However, the English defender’s contract expires this coming June, so the Diavoli remain interested in a possible free transfer at the end of the season.
The same goes for Fulham defender Adarabioyo, whose contract also expires at the end of the current campaign.
According to Tuttosport, the Rossoneri could make a final attempt to sign Adarabioyo before the end of the January transfer window as Pioli expects more defensive reinforcements this month.
Both Adarabioyo and Kelly can move to Milan on a free transfer in June, especially if Simon Kjaer leaves the Stadio Meazza at the end of his contract.
