English side Ipswich Town has taken the first step toward signing Lille center-back Alexsandro. According to reports from Fabrizio Romano, the club has already approached the French outfit to discuss the possibility of a transfer.
The Brazilian defender is currently on the radar of several European clubs that have been monitoring his situation closely. Ipswich is among the interested teams and has already engaged in preliminary discussions.
Current reports suggest that the two parties are discussing a potential deal valued at approximately €30 million. While no final decision has been reached, the English club's interest is considered concrete as they look to strengthen their defensive line for the next stage of the season.
Last season, the defender made 12 appearances for Lille across all competitions, providing a reliable presence at the back. With his current market valuation estimated at around €14.3 million, the potential transfer fee represents a significant move for the club.
