The Daily Mail is reporting this afternoon that AC Milan and Juventus are in direct competition to sign Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko.
The Bosnian striker had a mixed season at the Etihad Stadium last year of course. He did score a few important goals, but spent a lot of time on the bench too.
The season ended well with Dzeko scoring on a dramatic final day to help Manchester City win the Premier League, but there has been uncertainty about his future for a while now.
With City likely to spend big again this summer and Carlos Tevez committing his future to the club, it seems uncertain where Dzeko will fit in.
It is therefore no surprise to see both Juventus and AC Milan interested in securing his signature. It is thought that the Premier League duo are both keen on recruiting a striker and Dzeko – who has a fantastic goalscoring record – could fit the bill.
Whether the player wants to move to Italy though remains to be seen. It is only 18 months since his move to England and he may prefer to fight for a place at Manchester City.
Should the club accept a big offer though, he may not have much choice.
