After the Schalke central defender Malick Thiaw, the Italian champions AC Milan apparently want to sign another player from the Bundesliga.

According to consistent media reports, the nine-time European Cup winner is currently negotiating with VfL Wolfsburg about a loan for Belgian midfielder Aster Vranckx.

The 19-year-old only moved from KV Mechelen to Wolfsburg a year ago, but no longer plays a sporting role under the new coach Niko Kovac.

According to Italian media, both clubs want to agree on a one-year loan deal with a subsequent purchase option. At the same time, the Milanese are to negotiate with Vranckx’s advisors in Italy this Monday.

League competitor Atalanta Bergamo is also interested in the Belgian.
