Milan miss out on Lacroix?

Milan have reportedly missed out on Leo Lacroix as the Sion defender appears set to join Saint-Etienne.

Lacroix emerged as a late target for Milan in their desperate search for a new centre-back, but Calcionews24 claims they have been ousted by Saint-Etienne, who will sign the player on loan with an obligatory purchase option next summer for €5m.

The 24-year-old has spent his entire career with Sion and represented Switzerland at Under-21 level on three occasions.
