Agent: 'Edin Dzeko talking to AC Milan'

Edin Dzeko's agent has claimed that the Manchester City striker has held transfer talks with Italian side AC Milan.

The Rossoneri are believed to be in the market for a centre-forward, having recently agreed to sell Zlatan Ibrahimovic to Ligue 1 side Paris Saint-Germain.

Despite being heavily linked with Dzeko's City teammate Carlos Tevez over the past few weeks, it now appears that Milan have turned their attention to the Bosnian international.

"Edin would love to play in Serie A and with the Rossoneri," agent Sead Susic told spaziomilan.it. "A move to AC Milan is more than possible.

"There have been discussions and they are continuing. Let's see what will happen in the coming days.

"After the departure of Ibrahimovic, Dzeko would be an ideal replacement and it would be a wonderful experience, but we are waiting to see what happens. Is there a 70% chance that he ends up at Milan? Maybe."

The 26-year-old joined City during the 2011 January transfer window.
