After more or less securing Charles De Ketelaere, with medicals now scheduled, AC Milan could shift focus from the attacking trio for now. However, the Belgian might not be their last signing for the department, a report claims.

De Ketelaere will mainly play as a No.10 for Milan but it’s also likely that he will play to the right, seeing as Yacine Adli has done well in pre-season as the No.10. In any case, many would still say that the right-wing is Milan’s biggest weakness.
According to Calciomercato.com, Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara will make a new attempt for Hakim Ziyech towards the end of August. The Chelsea winger is seemingly exit-bound and the potential attempt obviously depends on the competition on the market.
Milan never interact with auctions, but if no club has come forward with a concrete proposal by then, the Rossoneri will make a serious attempt for Ziyech. The latter has expressed his willingness to join the Italian champions and also to lower his salary, which is an important factor.
Milan and Chelsea are on excellent terms but it might not be easy to strike an agreement on the basis of a paid loan with an option to buy, as the report concludes. For a Ziyech update, in other words, we will have to wait quite a bit.
