AC Milan want to beat Real Madrid to Nabil Fekir deal?

AC Milan have reportedly joined the race for Real Betis attacker Nabil Fekir.

The 26-year-old, who has previously been strongly linked with a move to Liverpool, moved to Betis from French giants Lyon in last summer's transfer window.

The Frenchman has been in impressive form in La Liga during the 2019-20 campaign, finding the back of the net on seven occasions in 22 appearances, in addition to providing six assists.

Real Madrid have recently been linked with a move for the attacker, who has scored three times and provided three assists in his last six league appearances for Betis.

However, according to AS, Milan are keen to land the France international this summer and are preparing to launch a bid in the region of €40m (£37.1m).

Fekir made close to 200 appearances for Lyon in all competitions before leaving for Spain.
