According to reports from Italian media, Milan is interested in Esmir Bajraktarević. The reports suggest he would be a more straightforward and less expensive target to acquire than Alajbegović because he is a reserve at PSV. This season, Bajraktarević has made 32 appearances, with eight of them being starts. His value is listed at 5 million euros by Transfermarkt.

AC Milan holds an interest in PSV attacker Esmir Bajraktarevic, a 21-year-old Bosnian-Herzegovinian international. It is reported that scouts from the Italian club were in the stands during the match between Wales and Bosnia and Herzegovina, a game in which the winger played for the full duration. Bajraktarevic is under contract with PSV until mid-2029 and has recorded two goals and two assists in 23 appearances during the current Eredivisie season.
