AC Milan will sign a striker this summer, but they need to be different enough from Santiago Gimenez to be valuable.
It seems all parties are in agreement. Milan need a new striker this summer, but one to help Gimenez rather than hinder him. After all, there is a player there; he just needs a bit of nurturing and time to adapt to Serie A.

In the meantime, though, there is a need to deepen the forward line, with three set to leave. Luka Jovic will leave after his contract expires, Tammy Abraham departs after his loan, and Francesco Camarda is heading to Lecce, at least on loan.
So, another option is needed at the very least.
New leading option
Dusan Vlahovic has been heavily rumoured, as has Lorenzo Lucca. In fact, the former has been the leading candidate for some time. However, it now seems that another idea may be the front-runner.
As Tuttosport (via MilanNews24) writes, the name of Tolu Arokodare is gaining attention and is emerging as a ‘leading candidate’. A powerful striker, the Nigerian would provide a different outlet to the front line of the Rossoneri.
Igli Tare has previously had success when buying from Belgium, and this adds a boost to his CV. Furthermore, he is completely different to Gimenez, meaning there are two different styles that would be available to the Rossoneri. An ace up their sleeve, indeed.
First time I saw him play, I was pleasantly surprised and impressed. Strong, powerful and sharp. I would bet on him over an overpriced Vlahovic.
The price might be above 40 million if Milan wants to buy it, and the management might try to lower the price/pay in installments and finally the English league club will get it
who?
Lucca’s Market Value is 22 Million.
Maybe a 5 Million loan with an option to buy.
24Y Italian H: 2.01m. 14 Goals and 2 Assist in 36 Games intrigues me. He don’t have language barrier and knows Serie A.
Are all of u serious?…”know league” klass player dont need time….u know kaka?….sheva?….ridiculous is reason to wait one guy to know league….they must take klass man!
Who is class?…for me….on LW diaz from liverpool…on RW they have pulisic and salemakers…on CF milan need player Who enters so many chances….nunez is No 1…. on market….and must give player to coach….at least one….give him cambiasso….
This guy or Nick Woltemade frim VfB Stuttgart wiil be awesome. Young , talented, bright futures, easy resaleble in case…
Not strikers like Vlahovic in decline phase of their careers. Exprensive and risky.
We must act smart and descover big talents befor others much richer than us.
Jeeez…my phone punish me hard 😆😆
Nick Woltemade is the Germany Peter Crouch. Can’t say No to him.
He might be Milan Roy Makay
If Woltemade wins the U21s with Germany, his price will double. I don’t think he’ll be sold for less than €40 million.
Vlahovic is in decline due to coach defensive game and no crosses from wings..his real value will show in a team i attacking mode not defensive like Yuve
I support the ideal of Tolu or Woltemade for the striker position.
Noslin is our guy – He and Gimenez looks as much as frightens and disasterous , are they?
Ok not a striker but Nicolas kuhn for 20 mil on the right wing would be a good buy from Celtic
AHH Como are now after him. At least we might see him play in Italy then.
Never see him, but his price is under 20m€ and last season has 20G and 5A in 40 games …not bad, if they buy him for 15m€ , it can be good deal… but the main problem is he doesn’t know seria A, that mean we need another one like Immobile
Hell Nooooooooo.
Before you bash me I’m also a Nigerian 🇳🇬 but he’s not what Milan need now.
Terlalu banyak pilih-pilih striker. Ujung-ujungnya striker selevel Ciro Immobile yang usianya sudah 35 tahun ke atas dan harga yang murah. Percuma Igle Tare dn Alegri menangani milan, mereka tidak akan di support untuk membeli striker selevel vlahovic. Kecuali Gerry Cardinale dan Furlani pergi dari management Milan,sudah pasti Igle Tare dan Alegri bisa membeli pemain selevel Vlahovic,Gyokerez,Nunez dll.
Get him asap.
Isnt it right to start closing some of these deals? E.g. jashari et al
