AC Milan are growing ‘impatient’ with Fode Ballo-Toure after he rejected the chance to move to the Premier League, according to a report.
According to Calciomercato.com, Ballo-Tourè has decided to reject Fulham’s offer which blows up the agreement that Milan had reached with the English club on the basis of a €4m fee and a permanent deal.
Milan are ‘impatient’ and ‘disappointed’ given the attitude shown by Ballo-Tourè in the last week. For days he kept waiting to give an answer to the offer from Fulham before deciding to turn down the London club.
Ballo-Touré wants to go to Bologna where he has received guarantees that he can be a starter, given that they will not be getting Andrea Cambiaso back after his loan from Juventus ended.
However, Milan have not accepted Bologna’s offer of a free loan with an option to buy. Also waiting is Riccardo Calafiori from Basel who has been secured in case of the Senegalese defender leaves.
I dont even see why they need to sell him. If he wants to stay and be a sub, a problem less
UEFA Registration issues. I think they want an Italian player to take his place.
A homegrown lb. pickings are slim AF.
Luca Pellegrini is one we were linked with and they said talks were on-going.
Why keep him just to be able to say we’ve a backup LB?. Try someone else who could at least product something different to what we’ve seen from Toure which at our level is not good enough for a backup! And he’s not expected to improve. His potential replacements are young with some growth potentials and an advantage in CL squad registration
Calm down dude. Ballo did well when i watched him. You’re not gonna find a sub that will match theos performances… heck, you won’t fond a starter lb that will match theo performances…
Please just go
I dont wanna see you anymore
Should’ve thought about registration rule before selling and loaning out our Italian players.
Just keep him if he doesn’t want to go – we need a backup because we sold Kerkes on the cheap, so keep him for another year.
I get that it means one player fewer in European registration, but that’s the bed we’ve made.
Gabbia was a must-loan in terms of his development, his and our interest.
Tonali maybe not an absolute must but a great offer, record transfer and he wanted to go.
When someone is not sure of himself, this is what happens. He already have opinion that he can’t be a starter at Fulham. But is he having a regular shirt here in Milan ?
If Hernandez gets injured he is.
I understand why he wouldn’t want to move himself and his family if he’s happy in Milan and he’s just moving to be a backup somewhere else. Robinson is a good full back for Fulham.
Credit to his character that he wants to go to Bologna to become a starter.
