AC Milan would ‘gladly’ sign both Japhet Tanganga and Pape Sarr from Tottenham Hotspur this month, with the club targeting both players for a while, reports Gazzetta dello Sport.
However, with Milan being a Serie A club they want things done on their terms, and, as nearly always, that’s a loan with a right to buy.
Therefore, if a player does well, the Rossoneri can proceed to make the move permanent for a reasonable price, and if it’s goes badly they can send him back to Spurs without ever worrying about it again.
It’s a similar situation with Sarr, although the Italian newspaper sounds more confident the Serie A side may be able to get their own way with that deal, either a straight loan or a loan with an option.
