BAKAYE TRAORÉ will wear the colors of Milan next season according to reports in France.
After supposedly striking deals for Fiorentina’s Riccardo Montolivo and Chievo’s Francesco Acerbi, the Rossoneri management has also reportedly agreed on a deal with AS Nancy midfielder Bakaye Traoré.
Traoré will be out of contract in the summer and a host of European clubs including Aston Villa and Marseille have shown interest in the Mali international who has been having an excellent 2012 so far.
According to the French newspaper L’Equipe, Milan and Traoré have agreed terms over a three-year contract. Moreover, the 27-year-old has reportedly already had his medical check-ups with Milan and he passed them. Milan are expected to release midfielders and are looking at low-cost solutions, like Traoré.
Around this time of the year, in 2011, rumours came up about another Ligue 1 player who had agreed a deal with Milan – Taye Taiwo. However, the left-back could not settle in Italy and was loaned to the EPL. “Along with Barcelona, Manchester United and Real Madrid, I think Milan are the most important club in the world. I am honoured to hear the Rossoneri are interested in me,” Nancy’s No. 12 told the press this week.
No side has confirmed or denied these rumours. Traoré can play a few roles in midfield and like Montolivo, he’d give Massimiliano Allegri more options in midfield if he joins the team of Berlusconi and Galliani.
