AC Milan want Luka Modric

The Italian tabloid, Calciomercato has revealed that the Rossoneri are chasing the Croatian midfielder this summer and are ready to launch an official bid in the coming days. They hope that Modric will be lured by the new Milan project which has lured the likes of Leonardo Bonucci and Frank Kessie to the San Siro.

But it is also said that a lack of Champions League football might prove to be a major roadblock in Milan's pursuit of Real Madrid's engine.

Andrea Belotti snubs Chelsea for AC Milan

The Italian giants are in the market for a world class striker and have reportedly convinced Torino hitman, Andrea Belotti to stay in Italy and snub an interest from Conte's Chelsea. Tuttosport claims that the personal terms between the player and the club have been agreed but a transfer fee is yet to be agreed upon.

Torino want €100 million whereas AC Milan are interested in a player plus cash deal. Milan are ready to pay €40 million up front and are also offering Gabriel Paletta and M'Baye Niang in exchange for the striker.

Juventus identify Leonardo Bonucci replacement

After losing the experienced defender to rivals AC Milan, Juventus have started work on replacing the 31 year old. The Bianconeri want AS Roma's Kostas Manolas to take over the reigns from Bonucci, Tuttosport understands. Roma value the centre back highly and it is expected that Juventus will have to pay a Serie A record sum for the defender.
