CM: Milan and Inter to watch RB Salzburg star up close at San Siro

By Oliver Fisher -

Red Bull Salzburg are in Milano tonight as they take on Inter in the third group stage game of the Champions League, and one player in particular is attracting interest.

According to Calciomercato.com, both Milan and Inter are admirers of Salzburg striker Roko Simic, the son of former centre-back Dario Simic who played for both the Rossoneri and the Nerazzurri in his career.

During this evening’s Champions League clash at 18:45 CEST between Inter and Red Bull Salzburg, the striker will be watched by a number of different scouts and it is likely that both Milanese clubs will take the chance to watch him up close.

Milan are in the market for a striker who can be the long-term successor to Olivier Giroud who recently turned 37, while Inter are well set with Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram but need depth given they use a two-striker formation.

Simic is 20 years of age, was born in Milano and has four goals in 10 Austrian Bundesliga games so far this season in a side that has seen the likes of Erling Haaland, Karim Adeyemi, Patson Daka, Sadio Mane and Benjamin Sesko come and go.

  1. Pioli my sincere advice if you are not confident in this 4-3-3 please switch to 4-2-3-1 because PSG are planning to attack our midfield like planning to play us attacking game.
