“Decisive contact”

“This afternoon, there will be a meeting or telephone contact with Fabio Paratici.

“Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara will talk to the Tottenham manager to ask for the English defender.

“AC Milan would like him on loan with the right of redemption.

“While Spurs, we understand, want to include the obligation of redemption.”

Earlier this week, Corriere dello Sport – also via – reported about the potential finances involved.

The Serie A ‘ hierarchy is aiming ‘to find an agreement’ to present to Spurs in pursuit of a deal.

The belief is that the loan itself ‘shouldn’t cost more than a couple of million euros’.

This would suggest a package of around €17m, or £14.5m, for the ‘‘ defender.
