European champions AC Milan are reported to have developed a keen
interest in Hamburger SV defensive star Vincent Kompany.
The 21-year-old counts as one of the most promising defenders in
the game and as such his club would only allow him to leave if
Milan are willing to pay above the odds especially since they
were so unluckily to lose him for almost all of last season due to
an injury he suffered shortly after arriving on a 8m euro deal from
Anderlecht as a direct replacement for Daniel van Buyten.
Milan are also said to be interested in Werder Bremen defender Per
Mertesacker, though there have been no reports of them being ready
to splash big cash on the towering German international defender
just yet.
