According to Sky Sports Italy, AC Milan are interested in Mohamed Simakan, who has been linked with Tottenham, Everton and West Ham.
Sky‘s report states that the Italian giants are looking for a young, fairly-priced investment to add to Stefano Pioli’s backline.
The 20-year-old wonderkid is a very highly-rated prospect, who has been delivering some fantastic displays for Strasbourg in Ligue 1 this term.
As WhoScored shows, the Frenchman has started all 17 of Strasbourg’s Ligue 1 games, scoring one goal and assisting one more.
RMC Sport have previously linked the centre-back to Tottenham and Everton.
Elsewhere, it was The Sun who said West Ham were interested.
While the Premier League has seriously strong pulling power, the English trio should definitely be wary of AC Milan’s interest.
Pioli’s side currently sit top of Serie A, having won ten and drawn four of their 14 games this season.
They are the only unbeaten side across Europe’s top five divisions.
AC Milan have enough of a glittering history to convince most players to move to the San Siro.
However, the fact they are currently among the most successful sides in Europe is also a major pull-factor.
If Tottenham, Everton and West Ham are serious about landing Simakan, then they’ll need to do well to beat AC Milan to his services.
