CM: Milan currently unlikely to use €20m option on Barcelona loanee

By Oliver Fisher -

Even though we are currently in the January transfer window, the AC Milan management will have an eye on how the squad looks heading into next season, with the situations of some loan players to be resolved.

Milan decided to complete the signing of Dest towards the end of the summer transfer window when Alessandro Florenzi suffered a serious injury that is still keeping him out to this day. The USA international joined on a season-long loan deal with an option to buy from Barcelona on deadline day.

Calciomercato.com report that while Dest is finding more and more playing time at Milan after a difficult start, and his understanding with Stefano Pioli is growing, his future remains ‘nebulous’.

At present, it is unlikely that Milan will pay the €20m that was previously agreed with Barca to turn his loan deal into a permanent one, so some negotiating would be needed or a return to the Blaugrana beckons.

  1. See if you can get it down to around €10-€12m cuz I believe that guy will come good when he finally settles into the team. On a totally unrelated note, Napoli lost albeit with a second-rate squad. Hope it’s a sign of bad things to come( for them of course). 🙂

  2. Oke so we need to replace Diaz en Dest with no money? That’s basically the thing? Not that I’m a fan of Dest, he’s poor on defense but it’s still 2 players

  3. Dest play more reliable than Calabria. Thats why mancini never trust him for starting RB. Luckyly Calabria its italian. The rest is nothing, Hehe..

    Just give Dest more minute to play, he can be more dangerous.

    And dont forget not to pay Diaz for 20m. Just pay 7-10m, its enough.

    1. “Dest play more reliable than Calabria.”

      LAUGHS OF THE DAY!!!!!!! ROFL

      Calabria is nowadays in fact the most reliable defender in Milan. Dest can be dangerous. Yeah, especially in our end.

    2. Everyday I read this comment section it seems to be getting worse and worse. Dest more reliable than Calabria? Please tell me you’re trolling
