CM: Milan identify potential replacement for Krunic as January exit looms

AC Milan believe that they have already found the ideal replacement for Bosnian midfielder Rade Krunic who is being heavily linked with a move away from the Rossoneri, a report claims. 

As has been reported by Calciomercato.com, Milan do not feel the need to numerically replace Krunic in the January transfer window should he make his expected move to Fenerbahce in Turkey.

The club are content with the options of Ismael Bennacer, Tijjani Reijnders, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Yunus Musah, Yacine Adli and Tommaso Pobega.

In the summer though, the club wants to add young Schalke midfielder Assan Ouedraogo, who has been linked with almost every big club in Europe during the past few months.

Born in 2005, the youngster has been on Milan’s radar for around two years and there is great positivity about the potential to get a deal done, albeit with a lot of work still to be done.

Milan are expected to move for him before the summer but they almost certainly won’t be the only ones.
