CM: Dortmund striker held out for Milan before accepting West Ham – the background

AC Milan are intent on signing another striker this summer, and it seems they are turning their attention away from Niclas Fullkrug. However, the German striker was ‘holding out’ for a move to Rossoneri, according to a report.

The idea of a three-prong strike force emerged at the beginning of 2024 when negotiations were underway with Olivier Giroud about a minimal role in the 2024/25 season, and whilst the Frenchman has departed, the idea very much remains.

At the beginning of the summer, the idea grew once more, and questions arose about which two strikers would arrive to complete the position. Since then, Alvaro Morata has joined, and rumours about another striker are swirling.

It seemed Milan were actively pursuing Fullkrug, but in the weeks since the initial interest, the links have slowed down, and it looks likely he will join West Ham United. However, a report from Calciomercato.com has claimed that the striker spoke to the German coaching staff about which proposition was the best for him.

It is believed that they stated a move to England was the best option, but the striker had held out hope until the last moments that the Rossoneri would be the ones to make the move happen.

      1. As always you come out swinging despite your ineptitude for forethought. That doesn’t matter. I have many friends in that region and he has stole their hearts. I watched the ULC final in a bar in Dortmund and the love for him was absolutely intense.

        You will learn nothing from your armchair.

        1. I don’t have an armchair.

          Fans are fickle, toady they love the cult hero fulkry tomorrow they love guirassy and forget the one season hit

          1. Oh dude 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️. That was exactly my point. Why leave for mediocrity, from where you are worshipped?

            But in your eternal bid for the last word you forgot to follow the thread.

            Whatever though, it’s not a big deal. It’s just you being contrary for the sake of it, again.

          2. I was being sarcastic but ofc you can’t read voice tons, can you.
            OK let’s do this.

            Fans are fickle, today they love [income sarcasm] the cult hero [sarcasm over] fulkry, tomorrow they love Guirassy.

            So basically by calling him a cult hero and using a nickname(fulkry) I was making fun of you for saying he is a cult hero..

  1. No, believe it or not I can’t read tones of voice on the internet. Most of your posts contain typos, how am I supposed to discern the intentional mistakes from the unintentional ones? Especially when you’re making up random nicknames for people.

    If you have to explain the joke, it wasn’t very good.

    He was a cult hero. He just was. I suspect you don’t know what a ‘cult’ hero is and that’s where you’re falling down here. Sorry about that.

    Now, by all means, fart something else out to take the last word. I’m done.
