The "Milan" team, which is creating a new squad, plans to shoot down several hares with one shot.
"Gazzetta dello Sport" reports that the "red and blacks" have almost agreed with Turin's "Juventus" club for a defender exchange - Mattia's Caldara and Leonardo Bonucci.
Both footballers are valued at around 40 million euros each, so no additional money will be paid.
According to the press, "Juventus" did not want to part ways with 24-year-old M. Caldara, but faced a threat from "Milan" to veto Gonzalo Higuain's transfer worth 54 million euros.
At the same time, London's "Chelsea" team will be left empty-handed, as they were dreaming of strengthening themselves with players from the Turin club this summer.
In the last "Serie A" season, M. Caldara was loaned to Bergamo's "Atalanta" team and drew the attention of the Italian national team coach with his solid play.
