As Calciomercato.com write, Samardzic’s agent Rafaella Pimenta seems to have made it obvious that the upcoming transfer window is the right moment for the playmaker to move on from Udinese, inviting bids from interested clubs.
The 21-year-old has a lot of interest too after an impressive season with Udinese in which he racked up five goals and four assists in the league, and an asking price of €20m has been set by the Pozzo family.
At the moment there is no concrete negotiation involving Milan, who are instead focused more on other needs and gaps within the squad.
However, once other operations have been concluded, the Rossoneri will try to open a discussion with a player that they consider to be ideal for the mezzala role that Stefano Pioli wants to add balance to the midfield.
Meanwhile, Napoli have been watching Samardzic for several months, but the negotiation cooled off a bit because the club changed coach. The possible farewell of Piotr Zielinski could change things however.
