AC Milan midfielder Jose Mauri is expected to be made available for loan in January.
The summer signing from Parma has been ignored by Milan coach Sinisa Mihajlovic this season.
Sportmediaset says Milan will seek to loan out Mauri for the second-half of the season.
Atalanta, Chievo Verona and Sassuolo are all chasing the talented midfielder.
Mauri last week rejected a call-up to the Italy U20 squad as he wants to commit his international future to Argentina.
