Trabzonspor and Besiktas are locked in the battle for AC Milan defender Cristian Zaccardo, reports La Gazzetta dello Sport.
The 32-year-old seems to have decided to quit San Siro in January and he reportedly has offers from the two Turkish Super Lig sides.
Trabzonspor turned their attention to Zaccardo after Philippe Mexes had rejected their approach, while Besiktas are also keen.
The experienced defender joined Milan from Parma in January 2013, but has largely failed to prove his worth at San Siro.
Zaccardo went on to feature in just 7 Serie A appearances for the Rossoneri and now looks set to leave the club in search of first team football.
Prior to joining Milan, the defender had represented Palermo, Wolfsburg and Parma, while also making three appearances for Italy at the 2006 World Cup, where the Azzurri lifted the title by beating France in the final after a penalty shoot out.
