Fulham boss Rene Meulensteen confirms AC Milan interest in Adel Taarabt Fulham manager Rene
Meulensteen has confirmed that AC Milan have made an enquiry regarding on-loan midfielder Adel Taarabt. The
Moroccan was left out of the squad that lost 2-0 to Swansea on Tuesday night, the Cottagers' third straight defeat in the Premier League.
With Taarabt, who is on loan with the West London club from QPR, set for talks with the Italian side, Meulensteen insists that he was right to not include him in the squad.
"There's been interest and we thought it'd be a wise decision to not include him," the Dutchman said. "We'll see how it develops over the next few days." The Fulham boss also refused to confirm their interest in Milan centre-back Cristian Zaccardo, whilst revealing he was unaware of the progress made regarding Olympiakos striker Kostas Mitroglu, the subject of a reported £11.5m bid from the Cottagers.
"I can't really discuss (Mitroglou) at this time, because I need to have a chat with (Fulham CEO) Alistair Mackintosh.
"He will know exactly what the situation is regarding the player."
