"AC Milan will have the chance to get back to within three points of Inter when they host Lecce, but they will also get the opportunity to watch a target up close. As Calciomercato.com report, the Milan management will have the opportunity to evaluate a name for the future of the defensive department, because they have set their sights on Tiago Gabriel. There are no ongoing negotiations between the parties, but he is a name for the summer."
"The directors consider the central defender a promising prospect and one of the options worth exploring for the future, but the idea of a January move for him is already pretty much out of the question, because of costs and also the fact Lecce are in a relegation battle. But it's not just Milan: Tiago Gabriel is one of the profiles included in the wish lists of Inter, Juventus and Bournemouth."
"In recent days they contacted Lecce to inquire about the costs and margins of a potential deal. Corvino's response was blunt: for less than €20-25m, the Giallorossi won't even sit down to negotiate. So, tonight is an audition of sorts for Tiago Gabriel, and if he passes it then paradoxically it could mean a much tougher night for the Rossoneri."
AC Milan can move to within three points of Inter when they host Lecce and will evaluate Tiago Gabriel up close during the match. Milan management views Tiago Gabriel as a future defensive prospect and a summer target, though no negotiations are currently underway. A January transfer is unlikely because of cost and Lecce's relegation fight. Inter, Juventus and Bournemouth have also scouted the player and contacted Lecce about potential deals. Lecce sporting director Corvino demands at least €20-25m before entering negotiations. A strong performance tonight could increase interest and complicate Milan's pursuit.
