Ballo-Toure heading towards Germany move as Milan identify replacement

AC Milan are currently in the phase of the transfer window where they attempt to offload players not deemed part of the plans, and Fode Ballo-Toure is among them.

Junior Messias has officially gone to Genoa, Charles De Ketelaere is Atalanta-bound, and then there is Ballo-Tourè. According to Calciomercato.com, the Senegalese full-back is at the door and his farewell is a formality.

The 26-year-old, who said no to Fulham in recent weeks, is now being followed by Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga. An intense dialogue with the Rossoneri is underway, and a meeting point appears to be close.

There is no definitive agreement, but everything seems to be going well in the talks and the hope of Giorgio Furlani and Geoffrey Moncada is to collect €4m, a figure the German club are slowly approaching.

Once Ballo-Touré has gone, Milan want to sign an Italian profile to replace him and Riccardo Calafiori from Basel is the name that most excites the management.
