AC Milan chief executive Adriano Galliani reveals that his club are interested in the signature of Ajax's 20-year-old attacker Anwar El Ghazi.

AC Milan chief executive Adriano Galliani has confirmed that his club are interested in signing Ajax attacker Anwar El Ghazi.

The 20-year-old, who joined Ajax in 2014 after spending time at both Feyenoord and Sparta Rotterdam, is believed to be a transfer target for a number of leading European clubs, including Manchester United.

Galliani has revealed that his team are also very much in the running, but will need to sell before they can think about launching an offer for the Netherlands international.

"El Ghazi is a player we like. But we cannot do anything unless one of our other wingers leave the club first. That's the way things are at the moment," Galliani told reporters.

El Ghazi has scored eight times in the Eredivisie this season.
