AC Milan are already scanning the market for potential targets ahead of the January window, as well as the summer one. According to a report, they have two Fenerbahce players on their radar.
Two positions that the Rossoneri have lacked depth in at the start of this season are left-back and defensive midfield. Thankfully, Yacine Adli and Rade Krunic have stepped up for the latter but a proper Theo Hernandez deputy is still missing.
According to Calciomercato.com, Milan have two Turkish youngsters on their radar, both born in 1999 (24 years) and both playing for Fenerbahce. The first is Ferdi Kadioglu, a left-back who has been targeted by Napoli in the past, and the second one is defensive midfielder Ismail Yuksek.
The report claims that Milan have a very good relationship with the Turkish side as a result of the talks over Arda Guler in the summer. Although the attacking midfielder ended up joining Real Madrid, the two clubs closed the negotiation with great respect.
It remains to be seen when Milan will reinforce these positions. A striker is expected in the summer, given that it will be a more expensive deal, but perhaps at least one of the aforementioned positions could be strengthened already in January.
Youngsters? 24 years old…
Who need DM? Bennacer will return soon.
Bennacer is injury prone and we need proper cover for rotation sake. He managed to just holdout last season.
No Turkish player
I’m with you. I’m not a fan of Turkish players at Milan either. That always seemed to be Inter’s cup of tea.
Miranda or Kadioglu. We need another left-back. A DM would be good too, but it may be better to wait until the summer when there will be more options. I guess it all depends where we’re at in January and where Bennacer is in his recovery. If Bennacer is ready to roll in January, and if we’re fighting for the title, it will be like a new signing. If Bennacer is still recovering and not expected back until late February/early March and we’re fighting for the title then we may need a DM. If we’re not in the title race then it will be pointless to bring in a DM in January.
if we milan wasn’t so cheap on salary we could’ve got ramy bensebaini guy that could challenge theo hernandez for starting spot
