According to Tuttosport, as cited by MilanNews, Thiago Motta and Mark van Bommel are still on the Rossoneri’s radar and they have not been ruled out fully yet. The Bologna man is also in talks with Juventus and then situation is thus complicated, but a lot can still happen.

As for van Bommel, it looks like he will leave Royal Antwerp at the end of this season and Milan are keeping tabs on the situation. The 47-year-old knows Zlatan Ibrahimovic very well and his success with the Belgian side shouldn’t be underestimated.
