Milan could return to the possibility of signing Barcelona defender Alejandro Balde during the winter transfer window, according to Calciomercato.com.
The Italian club considered a move for the 23-year-old Spain international in the summer. At the end of August, agent Jorge Mendes offered Balde to Milan, but the deal did not progress because of Barcelona’s financial demands. The Catalan club were seeking 40 million euros, and Milan opted to focus on strengthening other positions.
The situation could now change. Injuries to Alexis Saelemaekers and Pervis Estupinan have reduced Milan’s options in the wide areas, while Balde has struggled for playing time at Barcelona.
Under Hansi Flick, the defender has made only one appearance, playing 12 minutes in the match against Racing.
