Real Madrid are interested in strengthening their squad in the January transfer window, especially in defense, not in weakening it. However, the club's players attract the interest of many teams and this happens season after season. The latest to do so has been Brahim Díaz, whose participation has decreased this season, but this hasn't served to distract Milan's interest.
'La Gazzetta dello Sport' has reported that Milan have started contacts to negotiate a new loan for Brahim Díaz. In a difficult season, the Italians have thought about 'getting him back' after a year and a half at Real Madrid. At 24 years old, he hasn't managed to obtain a starting place in Carlo Ancelotti's squad, which could make the Spanish-Moroccan footballer think about a possible exit.
Milan don't have the financial potential to pay a big transfer fee, but Real Madrid have put forward the possibility of negotiating a loan deal so that Brahim can get some minutes. In Italy he would feel like a protagonist again after half a season in which he hasn't really been a part of Ancelotti's team. At Bernabéu he knows that it will be difficult for him to establish himself in the starting eleven due to the competition he has up front.
Brahim Díaz Has Many Girlfriends
Milan know Brahim Díaz well. Since then, the Italian club hasn't lost sight of the Malaga native's development, being impressed by his ability to adapt to a club as demanding as Real Madrid . Brahim has proven to be a versatile player with the character to excel in big teams, which has made Fonseca see him as a key piece to reinforce his squad.
The Milan manager has asked the club's board to make an effort to sign Brahim Díaz, aware that his arrival could add quality and creativity. He also sees in him a player with the ability to play in different attacking positions, something that would fit perfectly into the Italians' style of play.
Ancelotti creates problems for Brahim Díaz's departure
Despite Milan's strong interest, Ancelotti is clear that Brahim Díaz can't leave Real Madrid. Despite not being an indispensable player in his plans, the reality is that he wants to keep him under control in the squad. The Malaga native can change games with his mere presence and he hopes he stays.
Florentino, on the other hand, is clear: Brahim Díaz is not untouchable, but he will only leave if there's a big offer. Milan, speaking of a loan, is not one of them.
