Despite the renewal, which was announced yesterday, Olivier Giroud is still on Milan’s radar and it seems a move is possible. However, it all hinges on the demands of Chelsea, with alternatives lined up.
According to Calciomercato.com, Milan aren’t willing to pay for the arrival of Giroud and the stance of Chelsea will thus be decisive. Should they ask for compensation, then the Rossoneri will have to evaluate other paths.
Several players have been linked with the club in recent weeks, starting with Andrea Belotti. The striker is destined to leave Torino for a bigger club and although he’s a Milan fan, Roma appear to be in pole position to sign him.
Dusan Vlahovic is another target but Fiorentina are asking for a significant amount to part ways with their star. The Luka Jovic (just a few reports on this) track is very complicated, while Gianluca Scamacca’s price tag is also expected to be high.

All of these are “an alternative to Giroud”? Are you f****** kidding me?
Well said my friend qwerty.
It must be said that the management have been poor on their 70% of transfer decisions in recent years,belotti,de paul/papu gomez,ikone/berardi,&illicic all the way,forza milan..
It just shows the club has no intention of spending big $$ on an star striker this summer. Management is happy with an Ibra/Giroud duo…so that means we are not spending 60M on Vlahovic. And we should absolutely not spend 40M on Samacca who IMO hasn’t proven anything. If his fee was 15-20M different story but at that price no way. Instead we should look at Edouard from Celtic who is avail for 15-20M. That would be a steal. Boadu as well but Raiola represents him. I don’t see Belotti coming off the bench for Ibra. Need a RW desperately. Ikone, Hudson-Odi, Zyiach, should be prioritized. Lokongo as def mid for 13M is a steal, sign him immediately. Adil for RW to develop at 5M is a no brainer. Lots of work to do
