This summer, AC Milan could take advantage of a potential fire sale in the Saudi Pro League and the management could pounce.
In recent days, a lot has been said about the Saudi Arabian PIF. Previously, the group have been seen as a way to get rich quickly in football, but after a few years, Newcastle United have not hit the heights expected.

Now, they are lowering their investments in sport, it appears. LIV Golf had its funding from the fund withdrawn, as the Guardian reported, and several clubs in the Saudi Pro League are now facing questions about their financial futures.
Three from Al-Hilal
One of those clubs, as Calciomercato.com reports, is Al Hilal. The PIF are selling their shares in the club and a ‘significant debt situation’ is now on the cards. So, clubs are looking at the summer as a potential fire-sale situation.
For Milan, there would be three players of interest. Sergej Milinkovic-Savic would be the first and Igli Tare could aid a move happening. Imaginably, he would fit the bill for what Massimiliano Allegri wants in midfield.
Kalidou Koulibaly’s future would also be of great interest. He has previous experience in Serie A and he’d add experience if nothing else.
Finally, the one that is dreamt of by the player, Theo Hernandez, could be of interest. The Frenchman never wanted to leave the club, it seems, and he could be back for next season. There are a lot of ifs, but it would be a fantastic raid by the Rossoneri if they could bring one or two players back to Italy.
theo hernandez if he comes back and plays 3 5 2 it would be the best thing ever,
Theo and Savic are better than RLC and Estupinan for sure…
Much better than Ricci, Jashari and Barteshaghi as well.
Bring Theo back with a manager that hates insubordination
makes total sense
He was asking him to stay at Milan. Your brain doesn’t make any sense. You’re like a bot, but a really basic script.
You can make your point without insults. I always love reading your comments, but expunge insults from them.
I know, but depending who is the original commenter, I might not want to.
Typically I would agree with you, but in this case it’s not an insult. I honestly think Boulden is literally that – a bot.
All the those players only in milan dreams. I think they never considered to serie A again. Mostly go to another saudi clubs / go to turkey…
If PIF is in a pinch, I’d wait to see if it will affect Newcastle too. In which case, I’d try to turn everything upside down to bring Tonali back.
Other Premier league are interested so unless he’s going to leave the money behind
Don’t worry, Milan would never pay what they would ask for Sandro to bring him back. Still just a pipe dream.
Napoli 0 Lazio 1 (first half though)
Only in Milan dreams
