On Wednesday, TuttoSport reported West Ham are monitoring the situation of AC Milan’s Santiago Gimenez.
The Rossoneri are believed to be open to the striker’s sale, as he struggles to make a big impact. The Mexico international is yet to score once in Serie A this season. As a result, he is losing prominence in the Milan first-team.
MilanLive today shed light on his situation, noting that West Ham could offer a swap deal for the striker.
The outlet claim that Gimenez’s agent Rafaela Pimenta has received enquiries from England. As well as the Hammers, Sunderland are also a potential suitor.
To beat the competition, it’s stated West Ham can offer Jean-Clair Todibo to the Rossoneri.
The Frenchman would be of interest to Max Allegri’s side, as they have tried to sign the centre-back in the past. Indeed, they were angry to lose out to West Ham in the first place.
MilanLive make it clear that Niclas Fullkrug will not be of interest to the Italian side. They are seeking more reliable players if Gimenez is to leave as part of a swap.
Todibo is seen as being a good mix of experience and potential at 25-years-of-age.
