Milan are set to engage in direct negotiations for Girondins de Bordeaux midfielder Jean Onana and have two options to get him, claim Sky Sport Italia.
The Rossoneri are still seeking a replacement for Franck Kessie after he left as a free agent to join Barcelona.
There have been several candidates and the latest is Onana, as Gianluca Di Marzio claims the player’s agents will be in Bordeaux tomorrow to present Milan’s proposal.
He was not even on the bench for this evening’s Ligue 2 match against Grenoble and this was seen as a sign he is on the way out.
The 22-year-old Cameroon international has an asking price of €10m, but Bordeaux have financial problems and need to get a sale done quickly.
It’s reported Milan are offering €5-6m including add-ons to get a permanent deal now, but are also prepared to take the player on loan with an option to buy at the end of the season.
