AC Milan target Manu Kone wants to leave Borussia Monchengladbach but no concrete offers have been made for the French midfielder yet.
As reported by Sky Germany’s Florian Plettenberg on X, Kone is keen to leave the Bundesliga side in the final week of the transfer window but as things stand, Milan have not made a concrete offer for his services.
What is reported is that there have been inquiries from Italy to find out what it would take to sign Kone. One of those inquiries is almost certainly from Milan, but it is not clear who else in Serie A is trying to complete a deal.
The 23-year-old has got a contract until 2026 which means Monchengladbach do not need to sell him, but they would let him go if a bid of at least a €20m fixed amount came in.
Milan would be able to afford Kone if they can sell other midfielders first. Ismael Bennacer is the prime candidate to leave for the sort of figure that would unlock the Kone deal.
Tommaso Pobega is very close to joining Bologna which helps but that is a loan deal with an option for a permanent move, so the money is not guaranteed to arrive.
