AX Armani Exchange Milan had already been busy on the EuroLeague transfer market, but now "le scarpette rosse" ("The Red Shoes", as they are called) want to drop another bomb, which will be one of the most resonant this summer.According to multiple reports, the Italian team is finalizing a deal with Nicolo Melli, the international forward who was an important part of his national team in Belgrade and will compete at the Olympics. The 30-year-old had been playing in the NBA for the past three years. However, after he got traded from the Pelicans to the Mavericks, he did not find a role in the rotation of the Texas-based team and decided to return to Europe and to the team for which he played between 2010 and 2015. After leaving Milan, Melli had some great seasons with Brose Bamberg and Fenerbahce before moving overseas in 2018.

AX Armani Exchange Milan released Zach LeDay on Monday, in an effort to persuade Melli to return and make room for him on their roster. The Italian powerhouse, who lost the Serie A title to Virtus Segafredo Bologna, has already gone on to acquire Devon Hall, Jarian Grant, and Dinos Mitoglou, who also plays at the power forward position. Furthermore, according to "Sportando", the Italian team is close to an agreement with 29-year-old shooting guard Troy Daniels, who started his career with the Houston Rockets in 2013 and had also short-term stints with the Timberwolves, the Hornets, the Grizzlies, the Suns, the Lakers, and the Nuggets.Daniels played 339 games in his NBA career, averaging 6.6 points and 1.3 rebounds.
