AC Milan are hopeful of convincing Watford to part company with winger Gerard Deulofeu, who joined the Italian side just two years prior.
The Rossoneri have intensified their efforts to sign a winger, having already looked at profiles such as Yannick Carrasco from Dalian Yifang and Club Brugge youngster Arnaud Groeneveld.
According to both SportMediaset and Tuttosport the stage is set for a dramatic return to the Stadio San Siro for Deulofeu, who very publicly declared his desire to remain with the club beyond 2017 during his previous stint there.
Milan sporting director Leonardo is working on convincing the Hornets of accepting a loan with right of redemption for the former Barcelona youth product.
However, Deulofeu has been an integral part of Javi Garcia’s plans at Watford, emerging as the club’s most influential players with his speed and creativity.
Deulofeu has only recently made a €13 million switch from Barcelona to Watford permanent, meaning any deal could be dependant on the player’s desire.
