The Lombard club is also seeking a midfielder, and, as reported by the same media, are also keen on Genoa 27-year-old Juraj Kucka and Atalanta 28-year-old Luca Cigarini. Moreover, as outlined by calciomercato.com, Milan, as well as other Italian clubs, are also tracking some young talent playing in the Major League Soccer. Juventus keep on dealing with the situation of their right back Stephan Lichtsteiner, whose contract will expire at the end of the current season: as reported by gianlucadimarzio.com, today there has been a new meeting between the Piedmont’s club executives and the agents of the 30-year-old, who seems now closer to an agreement with the bianconeri.
