The defender is one of several members of the squad thought available on the transfer market this summer as a result, and it looks like Milan have stolen a march on everyone else.

Zapata is, according to Sky Sport Italia, already in Milan undergoing his medical ahead of agreeing to a move to the Serie A runners-up.

The deal is believed to be an initial one-year loan switch, with the Rossoneri also having an option inserted to buy the player on a permanent basis next summer. Exact figures in the transfer are yet to be released.
