Shakhtar Donetsk forward Bernard is reportedly planning to reject a summer move to Arsenal in favour of joining AC Milan.
The Gunners were said to be hoping to land the Brazilain on a free transfer, with his contract due to expire at the end of the season.
However, Premium Sport reports that Milan are planning to hijack the move.
Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester City have also been linked with Bernard in the past, but the Serie A side are said to be his favoured destination.
Bernard has scored 10 goals for Shakhtar this season and registered four assists.
