Fulham have reportedly made a bid for the AC Milan defender.
According to a report from well known football expert Gianluca Di Marzio, Fulham have made a bid for AC Milan centre-back Mateo Musacchio, and the Argentine would be a superb signing for the Cottagers, if they do in fact manage to get a deal for the defender over the line.
Musacchio joined Milan from Villarreal in the summer of 2017, for a fee believed to be worth in the region of £15.9 million, and he has since gone on to make 22 appearances for the Rossoneri.
The 27-year-old is extensively experienced in playing at the very highest level for such a prolonged period of time in Argentina, Spain and now Italy.
Every Love Island contestant if they were an England player – World Cup!
His style of play is quintessentially South American in the sense that he is tenacious, aggressive, and always throws his body on the line for the cause.
Musacchio would bring a certain level of defensive nouse and know-how to the Fulham side – something that they will undoubtedly need in the Premier League this season.
Quite how much the Cottagers have bid for the Argentine is unclear, but considering the fact that he is not a guaranteed starter at the San Siro, they surely have every chance of tempting the Italian giants into selling.
And if Slaviša Jokanović manages to bring the experienced centre-back to Craven Cottage this summer, it could turn out to be a signing of real significance for Fulham.
