AC Milan have opened formal talks with Sevilla for striker Luis Fabiano.

After drawing a blank with Wolfsburg for Edin Dzeko, Milan have turned their attentions to Brazil international Fabiano.

Milan chiefs Adriano Galliani and Ariedo Braida were in Spain yesterday for talks with Sevilla officials about a price for Fabiano. With the player having less than two years on his contract and Sevilla struggling for cash, Galliani is confident of negotiating a fair price for the prolific forward.
