AC Milan Still Interested In Saint Etienne Centre Back

Tuttosport via MilanNews.it are reporting that AC Milan are still tracking St Etienne defender Wesley Fofana. The 19 year old centre back had a big season in France demonstrating his skills all the way to the finals of the French Cup as well as a strong display in the league. The youngster has been linked with Milan throughout the summer but the defensive targets have taken a backseat to the pursuits of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Sandro Tonali and Brahim Diaz in the past week or so.

As we reported here, Milan have previously submitted a bid for the defender but this was rejected as St Etienne hold out for more. The defender is a solid choice to partner Alessio Romagnoli long term and could compete with Simon Kjaer for the starting spot this season.
