Milan ponder options for defense following difficulties to land Botman

Milan's main focus in the January window is finding a replacement for Kjaer who suffered a season ending injury. But following the difficulties to land Botman, for whom Lille turned down 40 million from Newcastle, the rossoneri started looking at other options.

 Paris St Germain's Abdou Diallo could the right target, with Milan looking to acquire him on loan without closing the door to also having an option to buy, a deal that could be reminiscent of the one completed for Tomori in January of last year.
