AC Milan are interested in Barcelona defender Eric Abidal.
The France international fullback is in a contract row with Barca and could be on the move in January.
Rossoneri management, unconvinced by summer arrival Taye Taiwo and the form of Alessandro Nesta, see Abidal's versatility as an excellent addition to Max Allegri's squad.
Should Abidal become available at the New Year, Milan can expect competition from Leonardo's PSG for the defender.
