The agent of AC Milan fullback Diego Laxalt admits a move to Lokomotiv Moscow is close.

Ariel Krasouski says Laxalt would be happy to move to Russia.

“We talked about it yesterday for the first time with Milan," he told MilanNews.it.

“We asked where the club stood on the transfer of Laxalt. If the two clubs find an agreement, Laxalt would have no issue playing in Russia."

There is still some differences over Laxalt's fee.

But the agent added: “I'm always optimistic."
