AC Milan and Arsenal set to battle it out for a Barcelona player

AC Milan have been very active this summer as they acquired 11 new players (Donnarumma, Conti, Bonucci, Musacchio, Rodriguez, Kessie, Biglia, Calhanoglu, Borini, André Silva, Nikola Kalinic) and they invested over 200 million euros on these new players. This season hasn't started off in the best of ways for AC Milan as Montella's club lost their last two Serie A games. The Italian coach is under pressure to perform even if everyone knew that this team would take weeks/months to gel. One thing that is certain is the fact that Fassone and Mirabelli want to acquire a new midfielder in January as they had been looking at Barcelona's Rafinha. 

According to Superdeporte (via Sportmediaset), it seems like Milan and Arsenal might make serious attempts for Rafinha come winter time as they both would like to bolster their midfield. Arsene Wenger's team have also started off this new EPL season very slowly indeed...
