Shakhtar Donetsk Coach Mircea Lucescu reveals Milan ‘are in pole position’ to sign Luiz Adriano this summer.
It was reported yesterday that the Rossoneri were moving closer to a deal for the Brazilian, who is out of contract in December, and Lucescu confirms the Diavolo are at the head of the queue.
“The Rossoneri are in pole position at the moment, there’s nothing with Roma,” the former Inter Coach told TeleRadioStereo.
Shakhtar Donetsk Coach Mircea Lucescu reveals Milan ‘are in pole position’ to sign Luiz Adriano this summer.
It was reported yesterday that the Rossoneri were moving closer to a deal for the Brazilian, who is out of contract in December, and Lucescu confirms the Diavolo are at the head of the queue.
“The Rossoneri are in pole position at the moment, there’s nothing with Roma,” the former Inter Coach told TeleRadioStereo.
“In January nothing happened either, we could find a deal with Roma, who wanted to take him on loan, and we had Champions League commitments so couldn’t afford to let him go.
“Roma did not insist, so his attention went elsewhere.
“He’d help out the club if he’d agree to a move [rather than leave for free], everyone suffers with the current uncertain situation, but it’s only right that he decide his future.
“Al-Ahli and Fenerbahce both offered €8m, but Luiz Adriano didn’t accept their offers.”
