A host of Serie A clubs are now chasing £5million-rated Scottish kid Josh Doig.
The 21-year-old former Hibs youth is currently at Verona after moving from Easter Road last summer. But after his debut season in Italy, several top-flight sides are chasing him. Bologna and Torino have concrete interest and are currently negotiating with Verona over a summer transfer. But MailSport understands that Fiorentina and Monza are now also monitoring the left-back’s situation as they weigh up bids of their own.
Also, although it’s less likely, Italian giants AC Milan enquired about Doig’s availability towards the end of last season before technical director – and club legend – Paolo Maldini left the San Siro in June. The Scotland Under-21 star made 22 appearances for Verona in Serie A last season, scoring twice against Udinese and Sampdoria If he makes the move to Bologna, Doig will hook up with fellow Scot Lewis Ferguson at the Renato Dal-Arra Stadium.
