AC Milan to move for Cagliari striker
With Robinho apparently set to stay at the San Siro the Rossoneri are unlikely to proceed with a deal for Fiorentina’s Adem Ljajlic, but will reportedly still attempt to sign the Rossoblu attacker.
According to Sportmediaset a deal for the 23-year-old would then conclude any transfer activity for attacking reinforcements to Massimilliano Allegri’s squad.
The Colombian joined Cagliari in 2011 for a fee of around €2.5 million from Atletico Nacional in his homeland.
Two years on Milan are expected to pay nearly €5m to secure his services, however, he could initially join the club on loan with an option to make the move permanent at the end of the season.
In 34 appearances in the league for the Sardinian club, Ibarbo scored six times as they retained their place in Serie A.
