Krzysztof Piatek tops AC Milan’s wishlist to replace Gonzalo Higuain, who continues to be linked with a January move to Chelsea.
The Argentine has reportedly asked the Rossoneri to leave for Stamford Bridge during the current transfer window, and director Leonardo is already hard at work looking at possible replacements.
La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that a move for Alvaro Morata remains unlikely given Atletico Madrid are favourites to land his signature given they feature in the Champions League.
As a result, Milan are looking within Serie A for a solution and have turned their attention to Piatek.
The Polish striker has become a key figure for the Rossoblu, netting 13 of the club’s 25 league goals to date.
As a result it would take a massive offer for Genoa President Enrico Preziosi to let him go, but with the Grifone always in need of fresh funds, a January deal may not be out of the realm of possibilities.
