Milan could hijack Manchester United’s move for Mario Mandzukic – report

Mario Mandzukic

The Croatia international has been frozen out of the Juve squad by coach Maurizio Sarri this season.

He was left out of the club’s Champions League squad and is yet to feature for the Old Lady in Serie A in 2019/20, as they look to find him a new club.

The outlet claims that Milan’s city rivals Inter were also interested in Mandzukic, but Juventus preferred to do business with the Rossoneri.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side have scored nine goals in eight Premier League games, leaving them just two points above the relegation zone as things stand.

Milan haven’t fared much better, finding the net six times in seven Serie A outings to leave them hovering three points above the drop zone.
