Transfer news: AC Milan make audacious bid for Juventus defender Leonardo Bonucci

have moved ahead of Chelsea and Manchester City in the race for Juventus star Leonardo Bonucci after agreeing personal terms with the defender.

The 30-year-old is once again in high demand this summer after helping the Italian champions retain their Serie A crown last season.

Chelsea and Manchester City have both expressed an interest in the centre-back after also tracking him last year.

But, according to SportMediaset, Milan have swooped in and are now on verge of tying up a deal for Bonucci.

The San Siro club have reportedly agreed personal terms with the Italy international over a contract worth around £120,000-a-week.
