In addition to Milan, I have heard of some other European teams also being after Akanji recently.
Actually Galatasaray has already been in talks for him. They have reached an agreement with Manchester City too but still no green light on the player side...
I wonder, what is taking him so long?

He isn't a starter at his team anymore and not much time left for the end of the transfer window for European leagues.
i don't think akanji's transfer to galatasaray is very likely anymore. fabrizio romano wrote that galatasaray has reached a definitive agreement with manchester city but hasn't spoken to the player. from what we can gather, akanji will choose the club he wants if someone pays his fee.
i don't know where akanji wants to go, but i think galatasaray should sign him. the wilfred singo transfer has been completed, and adding another defender is essential for the champions league. although he doesn't play the same position as akanji, it's also been reported that galatasaray has been in talks with bissouma. he would also enhance the quality of the midfield.
