The Rossoneri were previously linked with the Ivorian last summer , although a move failed to materialise. The interest fits the defensive overhaul Ruben Amorim has prioritised since taking charge. Milan have already brought in Mario Gila, and with Fikayo Tomori’s future uncertain amid interest from Juventus, the club regard a further defender as a priority. Doué, young and fresh off a full campaign in France, offers exactly the profile they are chasing.
