Italian Serie A giants AC Milan have reportedly turned their attention to Getafe striker Christiantus Uche after their move for Victor Boniface fell through.

According to reports, the Rossoneri are set to hijack Wolves' move for the 22-year-old.

The Premier League outfit have reportedly submitted a €20m bid for the Nigerian international.

Wolves are said to have agreed to personal terms with Uche in their bid to lure him to the Molineux Stadium.

Reports, as per MilanNews, indicate that AC Milan director Geoffrey Moncada was spotted at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium to watch Uche against Sevilla on Monday, August 25.

Getafe emerged victors, beating the home side 2–1 courtesy of Adrián Liso's brace.

Reports indicate that Milan will attempt to snatch Uche's signature ahead of Wolves.

Uche had an impressive campaign with Getafe last season, registering four goals and six assists for the Azulones in his debut season.
