AC Milan could seek to pursue Atalanta midfielder Giacomo Bonaventura should a deal for Adel Taarabt fall through.
Should negotiations break down Rai Sport believes Milan will turn their attention to Atalanta star Giacomo Bonaventura.
The 24 year-old was one of the Lombardy club’s top performers last season scoring eight goals in 36 Serie A matches.
Coach Filippo Inzaghi has reportedly requested the player personally as he looks to add greater depth to his squad.
Fiorentina and QPR have expressed a keen interest in signing Bonaventura themselves this transfer window.
