AC Milan confirm Gerard Deulofeu talks

The chief executive of AC Milan confirms that the club are holding talks with Everton over a move for Gerard Deulofeu.

AC Milan have confirmed that they are in talks with Everton over a loan deal for Spanish winger Gerard Deulofeu.

A host of clubs across Europe have been credited with an interest in the 22-year-old, with the Serie A giants, Middlesbrough, Deportivo La Coruna and Marseille all linked in recent weeks.

Deulofeu has featured just 11 times in the league under Ronald Koeman this season, including seven times as a substitute, and has not started a game since December 10.

"I don't like to make predictions on what Milan could achieve this season, as I don't know the future, but what happened so far is very good," said Milan CEO Adriano Galliani, whose side currently sit fifth in the Serie A table.

"We are talking for Deulofeu, but there is no agreement yet. Everton know full well we can only do loans or with option to buy. Plus there are these pro-Barcelona clauses.

"Tomorrow we will discuss it and try to find a solution, otherwise we'll remain with the squad as we are.

"I made a pledge, that as long as I am the CEO of Milan, I will think about this club 24 hours a day. I am absolutely concentrated on the Rossoneri. I'll only think about my future after the closing."

Deulofeu joined the Toffees from Barcelona in July 2015 in a £4.2m deal.
