AC Milan are planning to submit a new offer for Strasbourg defender Guela Doue (h/t Italian transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio).
The Rossoneri have identified Doue as the top right-back target and had a €15 million initial bid turned down by Strasbourg.
Strengthening the right-back position is one of Milan’s priorities in the transfer window following the departures of Alessandro Florenzi and Kyle Walker.
The Rossoneri are eyeing a youngster like Doue who can be part of the club’s long-term future.
The 22-year-old had an eye-catching season with Strasbourg, establishing himself as one of the best full-backs in Ligue 1.
The Ivory Coast international featured in 34 games, registering a goal and two assists, helping the French club secure a spot in the UEFA Conference League qualifiers.
Doue is a well-rounded full-back, averaging 5.73 progressive passes and 5.03 passes into the final third per game.
He is defensively solid, making 5.37 recoveries and winning 1.13 interceptions, 1.49 tackles and 61% of his aerial duels.
Doue possesses all the qualities to become a huge success at Milan and develop into one of the best players in his position.
The Italian giants are also monitoring Gent right-back Archie Brown as a potential summer target.
With Theo Hernandez moving to Al-Hilal, Milan are exploring the transfer market for a new top-class left-back.
They have initiated contact with Girona’s Miguel Gutierrez, who will cost around €25 million.
Having snapped up Samuele Ricci from Torino, Milan are close to welcoming Luka Modric as the next summer signing.
They are also working on a deal to sign Club Brugge midfielder Ardon Jashari, with an offer exceeding €30 million on the table.
