Milan has expressed interest in Young Boys player Alvyn Sanches as discussions over Rafael Leao's transfer to Aston Villa and Galatasaray continue. Leao remains under contract but the club is preparing for a potential exit while managing offers. Sanches has made a strong start to the season, scoring and assisting in four matches.
