M'Baye Niang is in talks with Milan over the prospect of a January exit, amid talk of a potential move to Arsenal, head coach Vincenzo Montella has confirmed.

A number of Premier League clubs have been linked with a move for the 22-year-old as well as Arsenal, including West Ham, Crystal Palace and Everton, for whom he had a trial back in 2012.
