Reports: Milan also send private jet for Gent star to try beat Fenerbahce – the latest

The Archie Brown saga has taken another twist on Friday night, as AC Milan and Fenerbache are in a private jet battle.

A few days ago, rumours started circulating about a potential move to Milan for Brown and on Thursday night Matteo Moretto stated that the Rossoneri were closing in on the left-back, battling it out with Fenerbahce.

It seemed, though, that the Rossoneri had lost the race. The Belgian newspaper Nieuwsblad stated that Brown was on a flight to Turkey where negotiations with Fenerbahce would continue in Istanbul and that the deal would completed this weekend.

Naturally, nothing is ever straightforward when it comes to the transfer window, and especially the Milan mercato, so tonight there has been yet another twist in things.

Fabrizio Romano published an update, stating: “More on Archie Brown exclusive story. AC Milan have now sent private jet for the fullback at Bruxelles airport as they hope to agree personal terms.

“Fenerbahçe had also sent a private jet hours ago. Both clubs agreed €8m fee with Gent but decision is up to the player.”

Matteo Moretto writes: “Milan has sent a private plane to Brussels to pick up Archie Brown, who has always prioritized a transfer to the Rossoneri. Fenerbahçe has also reserved a jet for the left-back. Decisive and final hours for the future of the Gent footballer.”
