Record Sport reported in December 2020 that Milan were keen on landing Edouard in the January transfer window, and now Italian outlet Tutto Mercato state that the 23-year-old will be a summer target for the Rossoneri.

They claim that Milan, who currently sit second in Serie A, will face competition from Arsenal, Roma, Aston Villa and Leicester.

Pointing out that Edouard had played under Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers at Celtic, they say that Milan’s strongest competition will come from the Foxes.

Edouard has scored 82 goals in 159 appearances for the Scottish side since arriving from PSG in 2017.
