Antonio Nocerino AC MilanAC Milan goalkeeper Diego Lopez and midfielder Antonio Nocerino will depart the club in the January transfer window.

The Spaniard was usurped earlier this season by Gianluigi Donnarumma, while the Italian has barely had a look-in all year.

According to Correire della Sera the Rossoneri have transfer listed the pair in an effort to make room for potential new arrivals.

Lopez has spent most of his career at the pinnacle of Spanish football, featuring for Villarreal, Sevilla and Real Madrid before Milan.

Nocerino shot to stardom in his first season at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, scoring 10 goals in 35 appearances for the Rossoneri.

Interest from the Premier League is likely to attract Lopez to England, while Genoa are very keen on signing Nocerino.

The rapport between Milan and Genoa is likely to play a big part, particularly as Enrico Preziosi seems keen on the midfielder.

Donnarumma looks like keeping his place in the starting 11, something that will encourage Milan to part with Lopez.

The 34-year-old shot stopper has made 37 appearances for Milan, conceding 56 goals and only keeping six clean sheets.

Vice-president Adriano Galliani is eager to reinforce in January, but would first want to free up wages beforehand.
