AC Milan have reportedly placed emphasis on signing Tottenham Hotspur over Serge Aurier in the current transfer window.
The 27-year-old defender was a key player for Spurs last season but has fallen down the pecking order following the arrival of Matt Doherty.
Spartak Moscow have been strongly linked with Aurier, but it is understood that the Ivory Coast international turned down the chance to move to the Russian club.
According to the Daily Mail, AC Milan are showing an interest in the Ivorian and are currently in talks with the Lilywhites over the possibility of a deal before the transfer window shuts down on October 5.
The right-back has still not played a minute of English football this season and was left out for Sunday afternoon’s match with Newcastle United, which concluded in a 1-1 draw.
Aurier will see his contract at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium expire at the end of next season.
