Riddled with a seemingly never-ending injury bug, AX Armani Exchange Milan are looking to strengthen the team with new signings. According to a report by Orazio Cauchi and Moses Barda, the Italian club is monitoring the situation of Dzanan Musa.

With Shavon Shields having undergone surgery a week ago, Olimpia Milan are in a difficult place now as regards the small forward spot. As Gianluigi Datome is currently the only regular option on the court in this position, Musa is drawing the attention of the Italian powerhouse.

The Bosnian forward has been playing lights out since signing with ACB newcomers Rio Breogan. After winning the Euroleague trophy last year with Anadolu Efes Istanbul, Musa is averaging 18.9 points, 5 rebounds, and 3.1 assists for 20.8 PIR in the Spanish league.

Milan is not the only club that is currently monitoring Musa's situation. According to Cauchi, a few other Euroleague teams are also checking the Bosnian forward's availability.

Olimpia Milan currently sit 5th in the Euroleague standings with 10 wins and 6 losses. Besides injuries to Shields and Dinos Mitoglou, the team has been hit with COVID-19 pretty hard. Milan's last two matches against Zalgiris Kaunas and ALBA Berlin have already been postponed.
