Montella hopes Crystal Palace target Caceres can ease Milan's injury woes

The five-time Scudetto winner and free agent has been linked with a move to the Premier League, but would also be welcomed at the San Siro

Martin Caceres has been linked with Premier League side Crystal Palace, but is believed to be closing in on a move to AC Milan and Vincenzo Montella thinks he could be a useful addition.

Free agent Caceres, 29, has been without a club since his contract at Juventus expired last June and is set to be drafted in at San Siro to alleviate Montella's injury concerns at full-back.

Luca Antonelli, Mattia De Sciglio and Davide Calabria are all sidelined, with the Milan boss forced to consider using Alessandro Romagnoli in an unfamiliar position on the left-hand side of the back four.
