Milan vice president Adriano Galliani is expected to fly out to Spain early next week in order to wrap up a deal for Sevilla striker Luis Fabiano, according to Il Corriere Dello Sport.

Having already tried but failed to land the highly-rated striker, the Italians are expected to increase their initial offer in order to persuade the Rojiblancos. The €14 million bid, which was made last week, was said to be insufficient as the Spaniards want around €20m, and the Rossoneri are ready to raise the stakes in an attempt to get their man.

However, reports in Spain suggest Sevilla could insert a €4m bonus clause, which Milan would have to pay if they were to win important trophies, such as the Champions League and the Scudetto.

Galliani is ready to fly out to the Spanish city and table a revised bid. Italian reports are confident that the big wig will be successful this time.

The Italian club's outgoing market revolves around Andrea Pirlo. However, his movements are unlikely to be significant until Milan discover more regarding the Fabiano transfer.
