AC Milan step up bid to make Diogo Dalot's loan move a permanent one 'as they open talks with Manchester United over a £12m deal'... despite Ole Gunnar Solskjaer talking up his Old Trafford return this month

AC Milan have reportedly opened talks with Manchester United over making Diogo Dalot's loan move a permanent one - opening with an offer of £12million.

Dalot, 22, departed United on a season-long loan for the San Siro last summer and has been a revelation for Milan boss Stefano Pioli.

Having fallen behind Aaron Wan-Bissaka in the pecking order at United, Metro report that Dalot's revival in Milan has seen the Serie A side press on with talks to keep him.

Earlier this month United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer revealed he is 'looking forward' to welcoming Dalot back into Manchester United's squad next season in what appeared to be the clearest indication yet the righ -back will not be sold this summer.
