Reports Milan snub Jimenez for Lecce clash

According to reports from Gianluca Di Marzio, Massimiliano Allegri has decided to leave Jimenez out of his travelling squad for Friday evening’s match away against Lecce. Sky Sport Italia adds that his omission is due to disciplinary reasons.

The Spaniard was an unused substitute for the 2-0 win over Bari in the first round of the Coppa Italia earlier this month, and again began from the bench for the 2-1 defeat against Cremonese in the first round of Serie A fixtures last weekend.

Now, however, with just a few days of the summer transfer window left to go, Jimenez is expected to be left out of the squad altogether, which could potentially lead to his exit from San Siro.

According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Serie A sides Roma and Como are both interested in a potential deal for the former Real Madrid talent, and have both requested information regarding his situation.

Over the last few hours, Premier League side Bournemouth have also reportedly requested further details on the situation surrounding the versatile 20-year-old right-back.
