Three pundits have had their say on which striker AC Milan should try to sign during the upcoming summer transfer window.
It has been well documented that Milan are in the market for a new centre-forward given that Zlatan Ibrahimovic is 41 and retirement is on the horizon while neither Ante Rebic nor Divock Origi have convinced in supporting Olivier Giroud this season so far.
There was some interested discussion yesterday during Bobo TV, and everything came from the comment of Antonio Cassano who believes that Milan could go out and sign a striker from one of their biggest rivals.
“If I were Milan I would go for Vlahovic. If you get to the Champions League you have to sign a strong striker. You took on Ibra at a tragic moment and it went well, Giroud has never exceeded 15 goals in his career,” he said (via SempreMilan.it).
“Milan are doing an exceptional job and have one of the best goalkeepers in the world, they’re covered in midfield, they have Leao who should stay, if they have to make a single purchase they have to put in €50-60m and sign Vlahovic. If Pioli arrives in the top four, you have to make a sacrifice for him…
“And I repeat, I’d turn to Vlahovic who will want to relaunch himself and Juventus will have to make a choice: either they let Allegri go or they let Vlahovic go. De Ketelaere? I don’t know, he has great qualities, but I’m afraid he’ll have to find a different environment.”
Then, Christian Vieri had his say and he also encouraged Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara to go for a domestic option from a rival: “If I were Milan I would go for Duvan Zapata from Atalanta.”
Finally, the last word went to Daniele Adani who believes that just one striker will not be enough.
“Milan must sign two forwards… There’s the one in place of Ibra, then another to play as a starter. For me, Milan should make Arnautovic and Morata and let Origi leave.”
