AC Milan are looking towards Holland, as a deal to bring Cesc Fabregas to the San Siro looks to be getting further away. The Corriere dello Sport claims that the rossoneri will now turn their attention to Ajax midfielder Riechedly Bazoer. The 20-year-old is valued at around €20 million and Milan are also reported to be willing to offer the Dutch giants bonuses relating to where they finish the season in Serie A.
 

Corriere dello Sport also claims that Lazio and Leicester City are set to lock horns over Ludogorets striker Cafù. The 25-year-old Brazilian striker has a Bulgarian passport and is valued at around €12 million. The biancocelesti are set to lose Keita Balde in January who will be taking part in the Africa Cup of Nations and need to find a replacement quickly; Cafù now tops their wanted list.

 

La Gazzetta dello Sport states that Juventus full-back Stephan Lichtsteiner could still join Chelsea next summer on a free-transfer. The 32-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season and a switch to Stamford Bridge is still very much a possibility.

Il Mattino claims that defender Kalidou Koulibaly will leave Napoli if the club don’t finish in the top-three this season. The big Senegalese centre-half has a contract until 2021 but failure to achieve Champions League football next year would hasten his departure.

 

Everton target Manolo Gabbiadini’s contract talks with Napoli have once again broken down. Mediaset Premium reports that the 24-year-old still looks set to leave the club in January.


 

Juventus are closing in on Benfica defender Victor Lindelof. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the bianconeri will see off Premier League opposition to acquire the 22-year-old Swede.
