Granit Xhaka has reportedly started house hunting in Milan ahead of completing a move away from Arsenal in the January transfer window.
The Swiss midfielder has not played for Arsenal since a public outburst towards supporters during a 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace last month which led to him being stripped of the captaincy.
Xhaka is now expected to find a new club in January, with AC Milan the clear favourites to sign him when the window opens.
According to RSI, the 27-year-old is now sourcing out property in Milan as he prepares for a switch to the Rossoneri.
It is claimed that AC Milan chief Ivan Gazidis, formerly at Arsenal, is working as the main broker in negotiations between the two clubs.
Reports have suggested that the Xhaka row has created a rift in the dressing room at a time of increasing pressure on Unai Emery.
