Vranckx the latest midfielder linked with Milan transfer

Milan are on the lookout for a new central midfielder, and Wolfsburg’s Aster Vranckxk is the latest player linked with a move to the Stadio Meazza.

Milan are still looking for a defensive midfielder following Franck Kessié’s move to Barcelona and according to Gazzetta, Paolo Maldini is now considering a move for Vranckxk, who is contracted with Bundesliga side Wolfsburg until 2025.

The 19-year-old is the captain of the Belgium U21 squad and has collected 25 appearances in the Bundesliga.

Raphael Onyedika is believed to be Milan’s No.1 target in midfield, but Midtjylland have rejected the Rossoneri’s opening offer insisting that they want to keep the 21-year-old for at least one more season.

Bordeaux’s Jean Onana is also said to be on Milan’s agenda.

Rade Krunic has been ruled for over a month, so Milan are in a hurry to get a new central midfielder by the end of the summer transfer window.
