Taiwo keen to leave Milan

NIGERIAN international defender, Taye Taiwo has expressed his willingness to dump Serie A giant, AC Milan in the summer transfer window as Benfica has shown an interest in signing him.The defender joined the Rossoneri from Olympique de Marseille ahead of the 2011-12 campaign, but failed to make an impact at the San Siro side and was loan to QPR midway through the season.The 27-year-old will return to Milan this summer, but is unlikely to stay at the Serie A giants as he appears to be surplus to requirements at the Rossoneri."If Benfica are considering signing me for the next season, then I can only thank them for showing an interest in me," Taiwo was quoted as saying by O Jogo."My plan is to develop and improve myself every year and next season it will also be like that. Benfica would be a good club for me to develop and improve myself."Taiwo has a contract with Milan until the summer of 2014.
