Inter Milan defender Francesco Coco is in Amsterdam this weekend for talks with Dutch giants Ajax. The Italian left back would prefer Ajax ahead of Greece side Olympiakos Piraeus and English sides Everton and Bolton Wanderers.

The 28-year old defender played earlier for AC Milan, who loaned him out to Vicenza, Torino and FC Barcelona during his Milan career. Fransesco Coco joined Inter Milan in 2002 when he was part of the Seedorf deal.

Coco never fulfilled his obvious potential, this was mainly caused by long-lasting injuries. Coco only played a handful of games during the last two seasons.

Coco will be a short term replacement for the injured Maxwell at Ajax. Who is expected to leave next summer.
