Ceccarini: Similar demands leave Milan deciding between two centre-backs

Ahead of the upcoming season, with high expectations for the campaign, AC Milan are expected to reinforce the squad with a few signings. A centre-back is expected to arrive, but the primary target hasn’t been set. 

Alessio Romagnoli, who’s currently the captain of the Rossoneri, is expected to depart as his contract will expire at the end of the month. This means that Milan need to bring in a centre-back, despite the brilliant Tomori-Kalulu partnership.

According to Niccolo Ceccarini, in his latest piece for TMW, Sven Botman has been on the Rossoneri’s radar for quite some time now. However, Milan have recently learned that he would cost roughly the same as Gleison Bremer, the Torino centre-back.

The renewed interest in the Brazilian most likely comes down to the situation of Inter, one can only speculate, as the Nerazzurri cannot come up with the money now. It remains to be seen which centre-back Milan will move for, in other words.
