MAMADOU SAKHO could be sold to either AC Milan or Inter Milan in January as he runs out of options in his bid to leave Liverpool.

Sakho, 26, has been exiled from the first team under Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.
The centre-back was sent home during Liverpool's pre-season tour of the USA and told to find another club.
Despite interest from a number of sides - including Stoke City and West Brom from the Premier League - Sakho remained at Anfield this summer.
Express Sport understands West Brom are still keen on Sakho.
But French newspaper Le Parisien claim he is set to leave in January, reporting that he is "disgusted" with his treatment on Merseyside.
According to the claims, Sakho would like to join a French club - but has refrained from moving to Ligue 1 because it would likely involve taking a wage cut.

Instead, both Milan sides are being touted as a viable destination for the France international.
Sakho cost Liverpool £18million when he arrived from Paris Saint-Germain in 2013.
He is yet to play this season and both Milan and Inter would likely prefer a loan deal rather than spend big money on the player in January.
