According to Gianluca di Marzio (via Get Italian Football News), Serie A heavyweights AC Milan have made contact with Leicester City about a possible move for striker Patson Daka.
Last season, Daka, 24, appeared in 30 Premier League games for Leicester City.
In England’s top division, he scored four goals and assisted four more, but his efforts were insufficient to keep his team from being relegated.
The Zambian international joined Leicester City in 2021 from RB Salzburg, where he scored 34 goals in 28 league games.
Daka has looked like the promising talent he is at times for the Foxes, but now not in favour at the club he may be on the move. Monaco held interest earlier this month, but now it seems AC Milan are pushing for a move.
This is an important one to finish.
So far this season, Enzo Maresca’s team has performed admirably without Daka.
They had a perfect start to the Championship, and their summer business has put them on track to challenge for automatic promotion this season.
Parting ways with Daka is definitely the wisest option for all sides, but it remains to be seen whether the Italian conglomerate can reach an agreement before today’s deadline.
Italian teams have until 7 p.m. to complete their transactions, putting further pressure on AC Milan and this transaction.
Despite being extremely busy all summer, the Foxes may be involved in many transactions today.
Tomorrow afternoon’s home game against Hull City awaits Maresca’s team.
