AC Milan are ready to open talks with Montpellier over their centre-back Maxime Estève. The Rossoneri are confident that they can get the youngster for a good price, a report claims.
After the departure of Matteo Gabbia to Villarreal, Milan are looking to bolster their squad with another centre-back before the end of the transfer window. In recent days, they have been linked with Maxime Estève.
According to today’s edition of Corriere Dello Sport (see photo below), Milan are ready to open talks with Montpeiller on the basis of a €7m offer. Esteve’s contract will expire in 2025 and the Rossoneri are thus confident that the French side will accept the offer.
The 21-year-old is highly appreciated by Milan’s chief scout Geoffrey Moncada, who has followed him for quite some time. Being left-footed, the youngster would be a good addition to the Rossoneri’s defence, which currently consists of solely right-footed centre-backs.
