AC Milan have stepped up their transfer activity as Ruben Amorim continues reshaping his squad before the summer deadline.
The Rossoneri have already invested heavily this summer while also working to resolve several late-window transfer situations.
They opened the new Serie A campaign with a 2-1 victory over Torino after a mixed preseason schedule.
Meanwhile, Milan are also looking to inject fresh energy into their attack without disrupting the overall squad structure.
Their search has included profiles capable of operating in different attacking areas while also fitting their long-term plans.
Liverpool, on the other hand, have also experienced significant squad changes during Andoni Iraola’s first summer at Anfield.
The Reds have already lost several senior names, while further movement remains possible before the transfer window closes.
One situation has now attracted serious interest from Milan after a lack of movement earlier in the summer.
According to CaughtOffside, AC Milan are preparing to enter concrete negotiations with Liverpool over Harvey Elliott.
The 23-year-old returned to Anfield after a difficult loan spell at Aston Villa last season.
However, there has been an internal feeling that remaining at Liverpool was always unlikely for Elliott this summer.
Milan are big admirers of his potential and believe he would fit strongly into their tactical plans.
Now, Liverpool are not prepared to sell Elliott cheaply despite his value dropping in recent times.
He could command as much as €35 million, while Milan currently value him closer to €20-25 million.
Talks have not yet taken place over a compromise, but Milan are now ready to move towards concrete negotiations.
Elliott remains open to fighting for his place at Liverpool, although he could leave if a tempting offer arrives.
