AC Milan scouts will be in Paris tomorrow to monitor for the last time transfer target Zeki Celik in France vs Tureky.
AC Milan have made a final decision: Andrea Conti will leave in January on loan. The Rossoneri are already looking for his replacement with Lille full-back Zeki Celik the top target.
Celik has convinced AC Milan and, according to Tuttosport, Rossoneri scouts will be in Paris to closely monitor the young right-back. The national team of France and Turkey play for a spot in Euro 2020 tomorrow.
An important test for the Turkish defender who, in all probability, will have to face off with world-class forwards like Coman and Griezmann. With Calabria in decline and Conti unreliable, AC Milan need a right-back hat can challenge the for a starting spot in Pioli’s squad. Milan have scouted Celik several times this year and tomorrow’s match at Saint-Denis stadium could be the last test for the 22-year-old.
Thanks to a young squad with many talents like Nicolas Pepe and Rafael Leao, Lille finished second last season and are playing in Champions League this year. Participation in the most prestigious European competition has raised the value of Lille’s player.
The Ligue 1 side value Zeki Celik at €20 million. A high figure for a young defender but the good relations between the two clubs could facilitate an agreement. The Rossoneri are already planning for January.
