Milan To Launch Bid For Tottenham Hotspur's Gareth Bale Next Week – Report
Leonardo has identified the full-back areas as the weak link in the Rossoneri jigsaw...
Milan are currently preparing for the 19th Trofeo Tim, a triangular tournament between the two Milanese giants and Juventus, which will take place over the weekend, however, they are keeping half an eye on the transfer market.
Once the weekend's competition is over, Il Corriere dello Sport is reporting that the Rossoneri will step up their bids to sign their two remaining targets - Gareth Bale and Lorenzo De Silvestri.
Both players are open to the move, and Lazio's De Silvestri is thought to be stalling over talks with Fiorentina in order to listen to Milan's proposal.
Leonardo is eager to strengthen the defence on both flanks and will match Tottenham Hotspur's reported €13 million asking price for Bale. Meanwhile, the Rossoneri will offer Lazio €8m plus either Massimo Oddo or Ignazio Abate for De Silvestri.
Should the Rossoneri complete the signing of one or both players, it would give a younger, fresher look to a defence that has looked slow and error-prone in pre-season.
