AC Milan have reportedly made Arsenal defender Oleksandr Zinchenko their priority target to replace Saudi Arabia bound Theo Hernandez.

Hernandez, 27, has reportedly given his ‘green light’ to a proposed move to former Inter Milan manager Simeone Inzaghi’s Al-Hilal side.

AC Milan have now stepped up their pursuit of a replacement and are prioritising a move for Arsenal left-back Oleksandr Zinchenko, 28.

Mikel Arteta’s side would be willing to let the Ukrainian leave this summer should they receive an offer of around €20 million (£17m/$23m).

Zinchenko’s wages are said to be a sticking point, however, with AC Milan restricted after failing to qualify for next season’s Champions League.
