Porto full-back Aly Cissokho could still move to Milan despite failing a medical, according to his agent Roger Boli.
The 21-year-old was unveiled as a new signing last week, but medical checks raised some problems.
Milan's chiropodist found Cissokho had something wrong with his teeth, which indicated he could develop a hernia.
The Rossoneri went back to Porto and asked them to reduce his price or agree to a season long loan deal.
The Portuguese outfit refused and the deal was officially cancelled.
“Only a couple of details are missing, but I am very confident. The biggest obstacle was the deal between the two clubs,” Boli told L'Equipe.
Milan had originally agreed to pay Porto £12.6m for Cissokho.
According to L'Equipe that figure has now been revised and the Rossoneri have had an offer of £8.5m accepted.
If the deal goes through it will be a remarkable turn of events for Cissokho.
He was playing in the French Third Division last season and only joined Porto for £250,000 in January.
