Milan "very close to Kabak"
FIFA agent, Gaetano Di implies he has talked to Schalke 04 and Milan are "very close" to contracting defender Ozan Kabak. "They've been after him for a while."
The center-back player had already been selected as a target across the summer and is also favored by Liverpool for the January transfer window
“From what I heard, and I spoke personally to the Schalke general manager about some transfer interest, he’s been in talks with Milan for some time,”
agent Di Caro said.
“Here in Germany they are certain Milan are already very close to Kabak. The Rossoneri have been after him for a while and were already close when Stuttgart were relegated, but he followed his director to Schalke.
“I also heard that Kabak praised Milan directors Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara, they were the only club that gave him a real sense they wanted him at all costs.
“Schalke are bottom of the table, they have a lot of debt and their financial situation means they can’t really rebuff Milan for long.
“There was a bit of interest from Juventus, but the player knows he’s got a much better chance of playing regularly for Milan. All indications point to the Rossoneri.
“Schalke set a price-tag of €30m in the summer plus bonuses, but considering the current financial and sporting situation at Schalke, I’d say they’ll let him go for circa €23-25m.”
