Rossoneri reopen talks with Porto over the sale of defender

Aly Cissokho's transfer from Porto to AC Milan could be back on according to the player's agent Roger Boli. The 21-year-old was set to be unveiled as a Rossoneri player last week but the deal collapsed after the defender failed a medical. Milan doctors discovered a problem with the Frenchman's teeth which they feared could affect his posture in the future and the transfer was called off. However Milan officials stated that a failure to come to a financial agreement with Porto was the real reason why the transfer fell through. Upon hearing the news of the medical the Italian giants were keen to take the full-back on an initial one-year loan with a view to buy at the end of the spell, something that the Portuguese champions rejected.

Negotiations

But Boli insists that the move could finally be completed after Porto reportedly lowered their asking price. "The two clubs are once again in negotiations," he told Renascenca. "They are trying to find a solution, I cannot say which, that pleases all parties. "I do not know when the negotiations will be finalised. But the deal is still possible, I do not know if it will be a loan or a transfer."
