Report: AC Milan want Marcelo

AC Milan are reportedly interested in signing Real Madrid left-back Marcelo this summer.

The Brazilian international, who has been with Los Blancos since 2007, struggled with a succession of injuries in the second half of the 2013-14 campaign.

The 26-year-old is regarded as a key member of the first team, but it has been reported that Fabio Coentrao could start next season as the first-choice left-back.

According to AS, Milan are closely monitoring proceedings with a view to making their interest official following the World Cup this summer.

Marcelo is currently with the Brazil squad ahead of this summer's tournament.
