Sanches heading to PSG or Milan, says Lille president Letang

Lille midfielder Renato Sanches will join either Paris Saint-Germain or Milan, according to Les Dogues president Oliver Letang.

Sanches has been heavily linked with a move to the French capital as he enters the final 12 months of his contract, but Letang insisted at the end of June that the Ligue 1 champions had made no contact.

Milan are the other European side interested in the 24-year-old, with reports suggesting the Rossoneri have a €15million deal in place with Lille should they fail to agree a transfer with PSG.

Letang, speaking at a news conference on Wednesday to welcome Guinea forward Mohamed Bayo to Lille, confirmed Sanches will leave, though he remains unsure to which club yet.

“Renato has two very good possibilities, two very big clubs,” he told reporters. “If he is still with us, it is because we have not reached an agreement with the clubs concerned.

“Renato is going to leave, to which club I don’t know. I will keep the nature of these discussions confidential. It will be Paris or Milan.”
