Tuttosport reported earlier this month that AC Milan technical director Geoffrey Moncada was present to watch Lloyd Kelly of AFC Bournemouth play live against Burnley.
The goal for the Rossoneri is to persuade the Cherries to release the defender in January of 2024, when his contract expires. Juventus and a few other English teams are pursuing transfers with them.
The Serie A pair have reportedly already “tested the waters” to recruit the Bournemouth midfielder, according to TuttoMercatoWeb.
Four points above the relegation zone, in 16th place in the standings, is Bournemouth. The centre back is viewed as crucial to Andoni Iraola’s team and the Premier League team’s attempts to stave off relegation.
The English club would receive a sum for the sale of the 25-year-old in the winter market, but it would be far less than what they would receive if they continued in the top division.
Therefore, even in the event that they receive a “significant” offer, Bournemouth has made it clear to clubs interested in Kelly that “he won’t leave in January.”
Juve and Milan would keep an eye on the guy in hopes of signing him for nothing come summertime. A few English clubs have their sights set on Kelly, who wants to take a significant leap.
