Milan could revive interest in Barcelona’s Balde after Saelemaekers and Estupiñán injuries

AC Milan could renew their interest in signing Barcelona wing-back Alejandro Balde in the January transfer window. Manager Ruben Amorim faces a shortage of wide options following injuries to Alexis Saelemaekers and Pervis Estupiñán, while Balde has fallen down the pecking order under Hansi Flick.

Barcelona are reportedly open to a permanent sale to fund a new centre-back after Andreas Christensen's injury. Milan previously rejected an offer from agent Jorge Mendes due to a €40m asking price, but could face rival interest from Juventus and Manchester United.
