Milan technical director Geoffrey Moncada personally scouted Lloyd Kelly during Bournemouth’s Premier League win over Burnley on the weekend.
The Rossoneri recently lost backup defenders Pierre Kalulu and Marco Pellegrino to lengthy injuries, reducing Stefano Pioli’s options at the back.
Milan are planning to intervene in the January transfer market to bolster their backline and have been keeping tabs on a number of interesting options, including Montpellier’s Maxime Esteve and PAOK’s Konstantinos Koulierakis.
Page 19 of today’s Tuttosport details how Milan director Moncada was in the stands o the Vitality Stadium on the weekend to personally scout Kelly during Bournemouth’s 2-1 win over Burnley.
The 25-year-old Englishman has been identified by the Rossoneri as a strong option to strengthen their defence in January, but they’ll have to fight off competition from the interested Tottenham.
Kelly’s contract expires with Bournemouth at the end of the season and he doesn’t seem set to pen a new deal.
