Daniele De Rossi could be on his way out of Roma in January as AC Milan are considering making a move according to Goal.com.
Silvio Berlusconi recently indicated that Milan s new policy on transfers is to focus on promising youngsters, while aiming to make one marquee signing per season too, and they are keen to make De Rossi their big-name arrival this winter.
The 29-year-old signed a new five-year deal with Roma in February 2012, but the Giallorossi have since admitted that they could cash in on the midfielder if a good offer comes in.
Milan have already been in contact with De Rossi to discuss a potential transfer, but the San Siro side realise that it will not be easy to get their man.
The Rossoneri are pondering a 15 million Euros offer, while also including defenders Francesco Acerbi and Ignazio Abate in the deal.
Even if Milan agree terms with Roma, a transfer is by no means a certainty just yet, though, as De Rossi s heavy wage demands could prove to be an obstacle for the 2011 Serie A champions.
Meanwhile, Milan also remain interested in signing Mario Balotelli as the striker s situation at Manchester City is getting more complicated after he took his club to a Premier League tribunal following their decision to fine him two weeks wages for his poor disciplinary record in the 2011-12 season.
Furthermore, the Rossoneri are also keeping tabs on Kevin Strootman, Angelo Ogbonna and Marco Verratti as long-term reinforcements.
