Luis Fabiano's agent has claimed
AC Milan have made an official approach to Sevilla for the
Brazil striker.
Milan are in the market for a forward following Kaka's
£56million departure to Real Madrid and had made Wolfsburg's Edin
Dzeko their No.1 target.
But with Wolfsburg adamant the Bosnian will remain in Germany,
it seems Fabiano has emerged as Milan's top transfer priority.
Fabiano's representative,
Jose Fuentes,
told Sky Italia: "Milan have made an official
offer to Sevilla for Luis Fabiano.
"The player has already said he wants to play for Milan next
season. I don't know how much the bid amounts to, but there is this
important and official offer on the table.
"Now it is up to the Rossoneri and Sevilla to reach an
agreement, then my client and I will speak to Milan.
"The buy-out clause on his contract is €30m (£25.7m), but Luis
Fabiano has concluded a four-year cycle with Sevilla and now Milan
represent a big opportunity for him.
"I repeat, the player has publicly stated he wants to join
Milan, now it is up to the two clubs to strike a deal.
"I think it will take two to three weeks, but no more than
that."
A transfer to Milan for Fabiano would seemingly end any
possibility that
Emmanuel Adebayor could leave Arsenal for San Siro.
