AC Milan’s summer transfer window continues to proceed at a rapid pace and Samuel Chukwueze should become the seventh signing of the summer.
As Calciomercato.com writes, Milan’s mercato has undergone a sensational acceleration over the last 36 hours as the management team of Giorgio Furlani, Geoffrey Moncada and Antonio D’Ottavio secured the arrival of Noah Okafor, with Chukwueze to follow.
The Spanish club gave a sign that an agreement has been reached as the Nigerian winger was fully left out of their friendly match against Hannover yesterday, not even being named in Quique Setien’s squad.
On Monday the last remaining economic details should be resolved and Chukwueze should travel to Italy to take the second and last non-EU slot available.
Milan will pay Villarreal €25m as a fixed amount plus bonuses (to go up to €28m) while a five-year contract is ready for the player, who would fly out to meet the team in the USA.
When Bennacer recover we will have full squad.
In the meantime, Milan must won most possible number of points untill winter transfer window.
Even if Bennacer come back in November/December he still need time to get back into form. He will most likely only substitute until March…
And the team will most likely already gels af that time. And who knows? Maybe in 3 month Reijnders, Pobega and RLC already better than Bennacer.
I think it was estimated he MIGHT be back in February as it’s a complicated injury. Therefore I wouldn’t expect him to be useful to the team before April.
Agreed. Tough to rely on Benny this season. Time he recovers (assuming no set backs) will be in the new year and it takes 1-2 months to get to full fitness and rhythm. I don’t think we are counting on him much if at all this season which is why we probably kept hold of Pobega for now and hence the need for another mid (Musah, etc..)
Our squad would be much stronger❤️🖤
