AC Milan are eager to sign permanently on-loan Manchester United fullback Diogo Dalot.

Dalot is wanted by AC Milan for the long-term with the Italian club prepared to make his loan move permanent.

He left for AC Milan earlier this month but with the side having a busy schedule coming up, he is expected to get much more game time.

Tuttosport says Milan manager Stefano Poli recognises the full-back's talent and the club are prepared to re-enter negotiations to make the move permanent in January.

Dalot could be set for his debut on Saturday in the Milan derby.
