AC Milan are hot on the trail of Catania midfielder Francesco Lodi, Il Corriere dello Sport has revealed.
With Riccardo Montolivo ruled out for six months and the likes of Kaka and Taarabt not certain to stay, the Rossoneri are in desperate need of midfield reinforcements.
And Il Corrriere dello Sport has learned that Milan are set to reignite their interest in Catania star Francesco Lodi.
The 30-year-old surprised everyone as he snubbed several of Italy’s top sides to sign for Genoa last summer, but he returned to Stadio Angelo Massimino just six months later.
Lodi has failed to help the Elephants keep their Serie A status, but he is, nonetheless, held in high regard by top Italian clubs.
Given his playmaking qualities and top flight experience, Lodi appears to be a perfect replacement for captain Riccardo Montolivo, who is set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines after breaking his leg while playing for Italy against Republic of Ireland.
