AC look to defender

AC Milan vice president Adriano Galliani has revealed they are still chasing Liverpool defender Daniel Agger with a view to a £6m bid.

The Danish centre-half has again caught the eye with his performances this season, but has yet to sign a new deal at the club which has alerted others to his possible availability.

Milan have been monitoring the situation with interest and have now confirmed that Agger is one of their targets for the January transfer window.

"We are going to sign a new defender in January, there's is no doubt about that," Milan vice-president Galliani told Denmark's tipsbladet.dk.

"We have kept a frequent eye on Agger and his situation at Liverpool and have of course noticed the problems that Agger and Liverpool have on agreeing on a new contract.

"We have a list of three or four names that could be used in the defence. Agger is one of those names.

"We will for sure make a bid for one of them in January."
