Aquilani: I'm close to AC Milan move


Liverpool midfielder Alberto Aquilani claims he is close to joining Serie A Champions AC Milan.

Aquilani spent last season back in Italy with a loan spell at Juventus, before returning to Anfield earlier in the summer.

Aquilani has been repeatedly linked with a move back to his native this summer with the former Roma man apparently not figuring in Kenny Dalglish's plans.

Juventus refused to sign Aquilani on a permanent basis because of his price-tag, while the 27-year-old also came close to joining Fiorentina earlier this summer, but he pulled out of the move as he wanted a permanent transfer rather than a loan deal.

Milan have now expressed an interest in Aquilani as they look to strengthen their midfield options after being annoyed in their attempts to land Fiorentina's Riccardo Montolivo

"I am close to joining Milan," Aquilani told Gazzetta dello Sport.
