Another source has claimed that AC Milan are big admirers of Watford’s Joao Pedro as they look for a striker ahead of the summer.
It is well known that Milan are in the market for a centre-forward in view of next season given that Olivier Giroud has just renewed but will turn 37 this year, Divock Origi has so far been disappointing and Zlatan Ibrahimovic might have already played his last game for the club.
According to Calciomercato.com, Milan’s future in attack feature Joao Pedro, who the management have been left ‘bewitched’ by. The Brazilian has been one of the few stand-out performers in a difficult season for Watford, having scored 11 goals in the league.
He is just 21 years of age so fits the club’s project from a potential point of view, while he can also play in multiple positions across the forward line but is mostly a striker, having amassed 15 goal contributions for the Hornets.
