AC Milan are trying to sell Pervis Estupinan this summer, and a return to the Premier League could be closer than some may have thought.
Over the past few months, it has become crystal clear that Milan would sell Estupinan at the first opportunity. Indeed, he was effectively listed on the mercato before the season was done and thankfully, there has been interest from across Europe.

No movement had been made, though, so it seemed that the task of selling him could’ve been made more difficult. However, with Ecuador’s elimination from the World Cup, reports have increased, and movement is now underway.
Estupinan’s exit looking likely
In fact, a move itself could take place in the very near future, with John Percy – the Telegraph’s Midlands football specialist – reporting that negotiations were at an ‘advanced’ stage between Aston Villa and the Rossoneri, via MilanXtra on X.
After working together at Villarreal, Unai Emery is keen to work alongside him once again in a league which the full-back already knows well. The Villains, as Percy continues, are optimistic about getting a deal done and things could certainly wrap up quickly.
It will only take around €15 million to get things over the line and hopefully it wraps up soon.
