Bonucci agent in talks with Milan officials

The agent of Leonardo Bonucci, Suso and Andrea Bertolacci and ex-Fiorentina man Milan Badelj has reportedly arrived at Milan’s training ground for talks.

According to reports in Italian media, Lucci had talks in Milanello, AC Milan’s training headquarters yesterday afternoon, where he was greeted by Milan CEO Marco Fassone and sporting director Massimiliano Mirabelli.

It comes amidst intense speculation about the futures of his AC Milan clients, with Paris SaintGermain said to be in for Bonucci, Suso a possible target for Roma and Chelsea and Bertolacci understood to be on the verge of joining Everton.

Alternatively, Lucci could instead be discussing a deal to take Badelj to Milan, the midfielder currently preparing for the World Cup Final with Croatia but without a club after leaving Fiorentina.

Meanwhile it was announced that fixtures for the 2018-19 Serie A season will be co,piled on Thursday July 26.

Unlike the Premier League, which released dates for all 380 of its matches on June 14, the Serie A fixtures will be unveiled in a special ceremony live on Sky.

The campaign will start on Saturday August 18 and end on May 26 2019, although the calendar will only be finalised in the next few days, as will the criteria for its fulfilment and which channels will air which games.
