AC Milan 'consider Leander Dendoncker move'

AC Milan are reportedly considering the possibility of signing Anderlecht midfielder Leander Dendoncker.

The 22-year-old was linked with a move to Manchester United during the summer, with Anderlecht sporting director Herman van Holsbeeck admitting that an offer of between £22.3m and £31.3m would convince the Belgian club to sell.

Dendoncker's agent Christophe Henrotay then revealed that his client wanted to leave, but Anderlecht managed to convince the midfielder to stay in Belgium.

United are still said to have an interest in Dendoncker, but according to Tuttosport, Milan are also in the race as the Italian giants look to boost their options in the middle of the park.

The Belgium international has made 17 appearances for Anderlecht in all competitions this season.
