The English side are keen on the Turkish defender and want to beat Milan to him

Juventus defender Merih Demiral is one of the defenders AC Milan are targetting as they look to strengthen their backline in January. 

However, the Turkish centre-back is also wanted by Premier League side Leicester City, who reports suggest are ready to pay 30 million euros. 

If Demiral does move to England, it would make Barcelona defender Jean-Clair Todibo Milan's only serious option for the winter transfer window. 

One year after signing for Barcelona, Todibo is yet to find a place in coach Ernesto Valverde's plans and would not be against leaving the club. Barça want to sell for at least 10 million with a buyback clause included in the deal. 

As well as Milan, Bayer Leverkusen and several Premier League clubs are interested in Todibo. But the German side don't want to include a buyback clause, although they would be prepared to pay 15 million.

Barça and Milan met last week in the Italian city, coinciding with the Blaugrana's game against Inter in the Champions League, to discuss a potential move.
