The Nerazzurri had even made an attempt to secure him in the event of a possible departure of Bisseck or Pavard.<\/p>\n At this point, however, Milan have \u2018truly overtaken them\u2019, having identified De Winter as the perfect player to add to their squad given Thiaw\u2019s imminent departure to Newcastle.<\/p>\n The 2002-born defender is considered a top option for the Rossoneri, and contacts have already been initiated to try to get closer to striking a deal with Genoa.<\/p>\n Thiaw\u2019s replacement?<\/p>\n In case you missed it, Milan and Newcastle have agreed a deal worth \u20ac40m including bonuses<\/a> for Malick Thiaw, who has left the squad in order to fly back to Italy before undergoing a medical, per reports.<\/p>\n There have been some conflicting reports regarding the bonuses in the operation for the German. SportItalia<\/a>\u00a0said \u20ac35m as the fixed base and \u20ac5m in bonuses, while\u00a0Daniele Longo<\/a>\u00a0said \u20ac36m plus \u20ac4m in bonuses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"AC Milan are pushing for Koni De Winter, and he is now the main name to replace Malick…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":58388,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[64,63,596,85],"class_list":["post-58387","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-football","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58387","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=58387"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58387\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/58388"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=58387"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=58387"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=58387"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
