Milan are pondering the option of bringing Alexander Merkel back to San Siro, La Gazzetta dello Sport reveals.
The young midfielder moved to Genoa in the summer as the Rossoblu bought 50% share in the player, but he could now be heading back to San Siro.
Milan boss Massimiliano Allegri is worried by the latest injury crisis in midfield and could decide to recall the 19-year-old Merkel.
The Rossoneri are now without Mathieu Flamini, Gennaro Gattuso and Alberto Aquilani, and they need at least one more central midfielder.
Milan chiefs are now ready to contact their Genoa counterparts and ask to buy back Merkel.
The Rossoneri have excellent relationship with Genoa patron Enrico Preziosi and they should have no problems agreeing a transfer.
The young German is considered an important part of the set-up at Marrasi, and he amassed 13 Serie A appearances this season, 10 of which were starts.
