One of AC Milan priorities is the signing of a high-rated center back, as their team seems to still suffer the departure of Thiago Silva: as well known, 24 year old Dedé has preferred to remain in his homecountry and move from Vasco da Gama to Cruzeiro,  but the rossoneri could sign, according to Sky Sport transfer market expert Gianluca Di Marzio, another Brazilian player, Internacional de Porto Alegre 25 year old Rodrigo Moledo. But the Lombard club is also evaluating other options: a young talent like, as reported by IlSussidiario.net, Red Star Belgrade 21 year old Nikola Maksimovic, and some footballers who plays in the Italian Serie A like Udinese 25 year old Mehdi Benatia; Milan, perhaps, could also take advantage, according to Milannews.it, of Torino’s interest for 21 year old Bartosz Salamon to swoop on the Piedmontese club 25 year old Angelo Ogbonna. On the contrary, according to the corrieredellosport.it, FC Porto 22 Eliaquim Mangala doesn’t represent a concrete option for the Lombard club as the Dragões evaluate the Frenchman over 20 million euros. Another main topic regarding the rossoneri is the one concerning their future coach, and one of the main candidates for Milan’s bench, Zenit St. Petersburg 54 year old Luciano Spalletti, has declared to Sky Sport that he has no intention to leave the Russian club.

Serie A defending champions Juventus keep on seeking a high-rated player to reinforce their offensive line, and, according to La Repubblica, the Piedmontede club’s General Manager Giuseppe Marotta has offered 15 million euros to Manchester United to obtain 26 year old winger Nani. On the contrary, according to Kicker, both the bianconeri and Inter Milan have been overtaken by Borussia Dortmund in the hunt for Schalke 04 19 year old Julian Draxler.
