Nancy midfielder Bakaye Traore has announced he has agreed to join AC Milan at the end of the season.
The details of the transfer were not released by the 27-year-old, but it is believed he will join Milan for nothing as his contract with Nancy expires in June.
I am very proud to have signed for a big club, who have some of the best players in the world, Traore told RMC.
I hope that this will go well and that this will be a step forward. I am not afraid of the competition.
Every player that wants to improve must not be afraid. If I am good, I know that I will have my chance, as they told me.
Traore, a Mali international, had also been linked with Newcastle and Marseille after establishing himself as a key player at Nancy since joining the club in 2009.
