Higuain moves closer to Milan as Bonucci prepares for Juve return

Juventus forward Gonzalo Higuain is ready to swap Turin for Milan, while Leonardo Bonucci prepares to say farewell to the Rossoneri after a single season in order to return to his former club.

Goal understands that the Argentine is the subject of talks between his brother and agent, Nicolas, and new Milan director of football Leonardo.

If Pipita consents to a move, he will arrive at San Siro on an initial loan deal as Cristiano Ronaldo's blockbuster arrival threatens to usher him out of the first team at the Old Lady.

Milan will pay out €18 million (£16m/$21m) for a loan move, with an option to buy at the deal's conclusion for another €36m (£32m/$42m).
