| Milan for Marchetti move? |

Milan are being linked with a summer bid for Cagliari goalkeeping star Federico Marchetti.
Although Christian Abbiati has been on solid form this term, it is widely accepted that Milan still haven't solved their goalkeeping conundrum.
The Rossoneri are keen to find a No 1 to take the gloves for the foreseeable future and have been watching a number of shot-stoppers across Europe.
But the answer could lie relatively close to home at Cagliari's Stadio Sant'Elia.
Marchetti, who hails from just outside Vicenza but grew up in the Torino youth system, is making a name for himself in Sardinia and could thrive on the San Siro stage.
The 26-year-old is currently on loan with the Rossoblu from Serie B side Albinoleffe but Cagliari will almost certainly exercise a clause in his contract to buy Marchetti permanently in the summer for around £1.5m
Milan have sent scouts to watch the No 22, who has been tipped for the top by Azzurri custodian Gigi Buffon, but as yet there has been no concrete approach.
