Aquilani 'close' to Milan move

Aquilani 'close' to Milan move

Aquilani spent last season back in his homeland on loan at Juventus but returned to Anfield earlier in the summer. He has been continually linked with a move back to the Serie A over the summer, however, with the former Roma man seemingly not figuring in Kenny Dalglish's plans. Juventus declined to sign Aquilani on a permanent basis because of his price-tag, while Fiorentina were only willing to sign him on loan. Milan have now expressed an interest in Aquilani as they look to bolster their midfield options after being frustrated in their attempts to land Fiorentina's Riccardo Montolivo "I am close to joining Milan," Aquilani told Gazzetta dello Sport.
