Athletic: Eintracht star snubs Liverpool and Dortmund to join boyhood club Milan

AC Milan will soon complete the signing of Daichi Kamada and they beat some strong competition to sign him, a report claims.

The Athletic confirm Milan have a verbal agreement with Daichi Kamada, who will join on a free transfer when his contract with Eintracht Frankfurt expires at the end of the month.

The 26-year-old was also a target for Liverpool, Borussia Dortmund and Benfica, while clubs from Saudi Arabia came forward. Kamada even spoke with reigning Saudi league champions Al-Hilal.

However Milan ‘was always the option that he was most attracted to’ because he ‘grew up supporting Milan’ after watching the club’s Champions League successes.

Now, he is expected to sign a four-year contract with the club of his heart and will become one of Milan’s top earners, with just issues over image rights to be ironed out.

Kamada has made 45 appearances in all competitions for Frankfurt this season, scoring 16 goals and providing six assists, and his final game for them will be against RB Leipzig on June 4 in the DFB-Pokal final.

  1. Honestly that’s the only x-factor that we have in regards to player’s preference. As we can’t compete with money.

  2. You are right. But we need to start winning trophies as other teams are catching up on us. Real has gapped us by almost double in champions league.

  3. Cirkey he has a good memory!
    If hes 26 and milan last won in 07 he was only 10yo

    Fair enough if milan went on to dominate but they disappeared after that.
    Hes a more hard core fan than most!

  4. I still have memory when milan lost against Marseille and ajax at 93 & 95 UCL finale.. am i hard core fans ?? Hehe

      1. I saw the Marseille one too but since Marseille was my 3rd favorite club I wasn’t THAT heartbroken. But that Ajax… I still don’t like the team because of that one match.
