Moretto: Brighton and Eintracht Frankfurt left-backs high on Milan’s list – enquiry made

AC Milan have held talks over Brighton left-back Pervis Estupinan, while Nathaniel Brown of Eintracht Frankfurt is also on the list.

Theo Hernandez’s time at Milan officially came to an end after six years when he joined Al-Hilal last week. That means that Igli Tare must find a new starting left-back, in addition to also trying to sign a starter for the right side of the defence too.

On Wednesday, it was reported that Milan and Manchester United are keen on signing Estupinan from Brighton, who have just signed a left-back in Maxim De Cuyper from Club Brugge to presumably take his spot.

Estupinan and Brown climb the list

According to the latest from Matteo Moretto on his YouTube channel, there has been some movement on the left-back front for Milan. In the last hours contacts took place between the Rossoneri and Brighton for Pervis Estupinãn.

It was the first direct talks between the two clubs, held to understand the deal feasibility on economical level. It’s not an advanced operation yet, but the enquiry is definitely worth noting.

The journalist went on to state that Milan are also monitoring Eintracht Frankfurt left back Nathaniel Brown, whose contract expires in 2030 with the Bundesliga club.

It would be a tough deal to complete for the German U21 international due to the potential cost, but the directors like him and he is on their shortlist.
