AC Milan are preparing a surprise move for Derby County full-back Jayden Bogle, according to 90min.

The 19-year-old has made 66 appearances for the Rams, claiming 14 assists having made his debut in August 2018.

Burnley have been credited with an interest in the full-back previously but now the Serie A giants are reportedly keen.

Bogle helped Derby to the Championship play-off final last season. A regular in Frank Lampard’s team, he played 51 games in all competitions as the Rams lost to Aston Villa at the final promotion hurdle.

The teenager is under contract at Pride Park until 2022 and it’s uncertain whether or not Derby will consider doing business.

Phillip Cocu’s team are currently 16th in the Championship. The Dutch manager won’t be overly keen on losing his better players during January as he looks to plot a late run towards the top-six.

TBR Verdict – For the right money Bogle could depart Derby

Every single Championship player will have his price.

With Financial Fair Play firmly on the minds of second-tier clubs, it seems only natural that if the right bid is made a player will leave.

There have been doubts raised in the past over whether or not the Derby man is equipped to play at the top level. As a result, that could see the Rams cash in on the right-back should an offer be forthcoming.

Derby could seal some fresh investment ahead of the January transfer window and that could allow Cocu to strengthen.

He could bolster his kitty by selling Bogle though and if the money is right it might be wise.

Derby have Max Lowe who is capable of playing right-back and Andre Wisdom.

If the Rams can get the money from Bogle reinvested into other areas of the squad then it could prove smart business.
